This article takes a critical look at the proposed regulation. After an introduction (1), the paper analyzes the unclear preemptive effect of the AIA and EU competences (2), the scope of application (3), the prohibited uses of Artificial Intelligence (AI) (4), the provisions on high-risk AI systems (5), the obligations of providers and users (6), the requirements for AI systems with limited risks (7), the enforcement system (8), the relationship of the AIA with the existing legal framework (9), and the regulatory gaps (10). The last section draws some final conclusions (11).}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Benz2024, author = {Benz, Eleanor}, title = {The advisory function of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights}, series = {Beitr{\"a}ge zum ausl{\"a}ndischen {\"o}ffentlichen Recht und V{\"o}lkerrecht}, volume = {329}, journal = {Beitr{\"a}ge zum ausl{\"a}ndischen {\"o}ffentlichen Recht und V{\"o}lkerrecht}, publisher = {Nomos}, address = {Baden-Baden}, issn = {978-3-7489-1980-3}, doi = {10.5771/9783748919803}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {478}, year = {2024}, abstract = {How do the rights of same-sex couples have to be ensured by states, and which kind of environmental obligations are induced by the right to life and to personal integrity?

This book is the first comprehensive, non-Spanish-written treatise on the advisory function of this Court. It analyzes the scope of the Court's advisory jurisdiction and its procedural practice in comparison with that of other international courts.
