In 2025 AI has become a world-wide topic with new AI-solutions to existing problems being presented on a regular basis. On top of that the implementation of the world’s first law governing AI, the AI Act, has started. The cherry on top? You still have the GDPR, national law and other regulations to take into consideration. For the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) questions regarding maps, drones and agricultural data are important. Sweden also has the principle of transparency of public work that goes further that open science/data. The principle is applicable for authorities and since SLU is an authority this leads to questions regarding how data can be requested, used in AI and later potentially be used in a way that is harmful. Another topic is how AI can be used to improve SLU:s research. This leads us to questions on how to conduct research with the help of AI in a responsible way so that the standard for data protection and security is upheld. This contribution will bring a legal aspect to the question on AI that focuses on how sustainable solutions can be brought forth.
