Mr. Online interviews Vonne Laan on the AI Act, privacy roles and legal innovation
In Mr. Online's 'Lawyer of the Week' interview, Vonne Laan discusses the practical impact of the AI Act, common misconceptions about privacy roles and the importance of technological knowledge in legal practice.
Mr. Online selected Vonne Laan as its Lawyer of the Week and interviewed her about privacy, artificial intelligence and innovation in the legal sector. Vonne explains what organisations should already be doing to prepare for the EU AI Act and why legal roles under the AI Act do not always align with the familiar roles under the GDPR. She also addresses a persistent misconception: parties exchanging personal data do not automatically need a data processing agreement; the correct contractual arrangement depends on their actual privacy roles. The interview also covers knowledge-sharing, public speaking and the need for the Dutch legal sector to engage more systematically with technological developments.
