The European Court of Auditors (ECA) released its latest Journal on 30 June 2026, focusing on the EU’s digital transition and the growing influence of artificial intelligence. The 70‑page publication includes 23 feature articles and interviews with key figures such as European Commission Executive Vice‑President Henna Virkkunen, Parliament rapporteur Michael McNamara, and representatives from major tech firms. Topics cover AI’s role in public administration, data protection, and industrial policy, as well as the auditors’ own experiences integrating AI into audit work. The Journal also examines the EU’s microchip ambitions, space‑engineering initiatives, and the impact of big tech on democratic foundations. By documenting policymakers’ and auditors’ perspectives, the ECA aims to inform the public about progress and challenges in EU AI governance.
