The Imperative of Protecting Human Dignity and Fundamental EU Values in the Context of Implementing Artificial Intelligence Systems

Summary/Abstract: The final declaration of the Paris Summit for Open AI, held on February 6-11, 2025, seen as “an extension” of the Council of Europe’s Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence, emphasized on the one hand that the summit “defined an inclusive, open, and multi-stakeholder approach that will enable AI to be ethical, safe, secure, trustworthy, and focused on human rights and people”, while also highlighting the urgency of ethical assessment and firm control over the impact on human rights. Therefore, this study illustrates the challenges posed by the implementation of AI systems on human dignity and, implicitly, the need for regulatory rigor at the EU and Council of Europe level to enable a response to these challenges.
