The Scientific AI Hub provides independent, evidence-based tools and insights from the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC), to inform approaches to AI use and policies. Our teams support scientists and policymakers by:

• Tracking the development and deployment of AI in science, healthcare, public administration and other sectors 
• Assessing the risks and opportunities associated with AI
• Developing studies, reporting methods and best practices on the trustworthy adoption of AI 

This Hub is designed to support evidence-based decision-making and inform scientists, policymakers and the wider public debate around AI.

Our approach

We contribute to shaping the European digital society in an ethical, trustworthy, human-centred way by integrating sound and frontier scientific know-how from different disciplines, including:

• engineering and computer science
• data science and informatics
• social sciences.

This interdisciplinary approach means we evaluate AI both as a technology and in terms of its societal, economic and policy implications.
