PositiveImpact The proposed framework for SMEs may enhance ethical awareness and responsibility in AI development, leading to safer and more reliable AI systems. As SMEs adopt and integrate ethical considerations, they may create educational programs and resources that elevate public understanding and trust in AI, thus fostering a more informed citizenry capable of engaging critically in future AI developments. This could enhance educational outcomes by integrating ethical AI usage into curricula, preparing future generations to navigate complexities in technology use responsibly, and ensuring they can leverage AI for social good.

NegativeImpact However, if the framework is poorly designed or implemented, it could create confusion among SMEs, leading to inconsistent ethical standards across the sector. Additionally, this approach may inadvertently prioritize compliance over innovation, causing SMEs to focus more on fulfilling regulatory obligations than on developing cutting-edge AI solutions. If SMEs fail to ramp up quickly enough to technological advancements, the EU risks falling further behind global competitors, potentially limiting educational and career opportunities related to AI.
