Re: UPDATED, for immediate action! [was] Draft EU Commission guidelines on the classification of high-risk AI system

Dear all,

I have read the submitted document on behalf of the AIKR CG with input from
the AI Agent Protocol and reference to the A2WF CG.

I also checked for the complete list of all relevant documents of the EU AI
Act pertaining to its phased introduction and roll-out.

As stated in earlier posts I am particularly interested in the development
of digital twins for terrestrial and marine (coastal and ocean)
(very)(large) ecosystems that can include one or more of the three
components of sustainable development,  i.e. economic development, social
development or ecological management.

The EU has developed the BioDT, DestinE and EDITO (ocean digital twin)
frameworks.
Of these the EDITO is relevant for projects that we are developing in
collaboration with the UNEP Caribbean Environmental Programme (CEP-UNEP),
Grid Arendal Blue Carbon Program, the UNESCO Man and Biosphere Programme,
which recently designated the Dutch Caribbean island of Aruba as the second
full territory Biosphere Reserve on earth.
Because Aruba is one of the 13 Overseas Countries and Territories of the
European Union we will be using the EU AI Act and other relevant documents
to guide the entire process of designing an ocean digital twin for Small
Island Developing States (SIDS),  and use the Caribbean and South Pacific
as geographical frameworks of reference.

I have dealt with complex legislation at the UN level for climate, ocean
and marine biodiversity, and also waste management and pollution issues,
but the EU AI Act is the single most complex legislation I have encountered
so far.
Because I now must combine both multiple legal UN frameworks (treaties) and
the EU AI Act to design the ocean digital twin for SIDS I must create a
strategy,  complete with planning, deliverables ( both UN treaty and EU AI
Act defined and mandatory) for the creation of proof of concept and pilot
project phases.

For the preparatory,  preliminary processes I am considering doing this in
a manner that allows StratML application.

But I am also open to suggestions for frameworks to assess which parts of
the EU AI Act are applicable for the development of a digital twin for the
ocean.

The current use of technologies applied in ocean observation and monitoring
covers a scope of artificial intelligence applications that exceeds the
boundaries of what is framed in the EU AI Act.

The creation of a proof of concept project and pilot project could provide
valuable case study testing of the EU AI Act.

I will soon be making more information available on the ecodigitaltwins.org
website (under construction) on the setup.

Again I am open to suggestions on how to proceed with the strategy,
planning and automated processes for designing such a digital twin and als
welcome the possibility of collaboration.
