- Abstract: There is increasing attention being given to how to regulate AI systems. As governing bodies grapple with what values to encapsulate into regulation, we consider the technical half of the question: To what extent can AI experts vet an AI system for adherence to regulatory requirements? We investigate this question through the lens of two public sector procurement checklists, identifying what we can do now, what should be possible with technical innovation, and what requirements need a more interdisciplinary approach.

This paper investigates four regulatory systems: UK regulation of content platforms, data protection, UK financial services, and the EU AI Act'92s cross-sectoral regime.<n>It analyses the challenges posed by autonomous and agentic AI and proposes potential solutions which regulators might adopt.<n>These will transform regulation from a reactive process to an active one, and assist it in adapting to the challenges of AI autonomy.

generative AI systems display emergent capabilities and are adaptable to a wide range of downstream tasks.
Existing auditing procedures fail to address the governance challenges posed by generative AI systems.
We propose a three-layered approach, whereby governance audits of technology providers that design and disseminate generative AI systems, model audits of generative AI systems after pre-training but prior to their release, and application audits of applications based on top of generative AI systems.

Within the global governance of AI, the requirement for human oversight is embodied in several regulatory formats.
The EU legislator is therefore going much further than in the past in "spelling out" the legal requirement for human oversight.
The question of the place of humans in the AI decision-making process should be given particular attention.
