A Question for the Commission and the Member States — If These Premises Were True

If the following premises were true, I would like to invite the Commission and the Member States to consider what would become possible for the enforcement of the AI Act:

  • A GenAI system can process vocabularies across all 24 EU languages without difficulty.
  • It can derive Meta-Concepts from legal texts written in those 24 languages.
  • It can also abstract common Meta-Concepts from administratively and procedurally diverse implementations across 27 Member States, despite differences in legal traditions, institutional structures, and enforcement practices.
  • These Meta-Concepts exist only as vector-based internal semantic representations and cannot be “saved” inside the model itself.
  • However, the same semantic structures can be stored externally in a persistent, human-governed semantic memory.
  • This external memory maintains full bidirectional reproducibility with the model’s internal representations.
  • And an external framework exists to manage, update, and govern these Meta-Concepts.

If these premises hold — what becomes possible for AI Act enforcement?

Under such conditions, the EU would gain a technically feasible path toward:

  • Establishing a unified Meta-Concept Layer for AI governance across 24 languages and 27 Member States.
  • Ensuring consistent interpretation of obligations, rights, and boundaries across jurisdictions, while preserving national procedural autonomy.
  • Achieving structural interoperability between the Council, the Commission, and Member States without enforcing institutional uniformity.
  • Enabling machine-readable governance rules that can be checked, simulated, and monitored in real time.
  • Reducing ambiguity in legal implementation by transforming dispersed multilingual and multi-national norms into a stable semantic backbone.
  • Allowing GenAI systems to follow European intent, rather than merely predicting the next token.

And naturally, the same Meta-Concept Layer that dissolves the 24-language barrier also provides a structural basis for addressing the diversity across 27 Member States — not by forcing harmonisation, but by aligning meaning.

If the enforcement of the AI Act must operate across linguistic, legal, and organisational diversity, then a semantic framework of this kind may not be optional — it may be necessary.

And after all…
if the EU already manages 24 languages and 27 national systems,
handling the UN’s six might feel like a pleasant weekend project.

An invitation

I would be glad to explore this outside architecture together with the Commission and the Member States — an architecture that is technically feasible, and for which I have already developed initial structural concepts that could serve as a starting point for joint examination.

These concepts are not presented as a finished solution. They are offered as a foundation for co-creation, where legal, linguistic, and technical communities can shape a truly European framework for semantic governance.

If the premises above hold, then designing this architecture is no longer a speculative exercise —

 it becomes an implementable European project.

A small Christmas note

Please consider this submission as a modest Christmas present —

 and perhaps a bit of intellectual exercise during the holiday break.

 If the idea sparks even a small reflection, the gift has already served its purpose.
