Artificial intelligence and AI act: From the individual to the algorithm?

This paper focuses on the analysis of the AI Act as a risk-based regulatory model for AI aimed at balancing the need for technological development, which can ensure greater efficiency and well-being, with the protection of fundamental rights, for which potential risks must be identified along with appropriate mitigation measures. The goal is to prevent a public decision being left solely to the 'thinking machine ', an expression of a mechanism of in differentiation that, through mathematical-computational logic, flattens individual identities (social complexity) onto data, no matter how numerous.
