EU Council greenlights pioneering risk-based regulations for artificial intelligence

The Council of the European Union has approved groundbreaking risk-based regulations for artificial intelligence, marking a significant milestone in global AI governance. The legislation, known as the EU AI Act, sets a new standard for AI regulation and will be implemented in phases across the EU. It prohibits certain high-risk AI applications like cognitive behavioral manipulation and social scoring.

The new law emphasizes a risk-based approach, categorizing uses into unacceptable risk and high-risk categories, such as biometrics and facial recognition. App developers seeking access to the EU market must adhere to quality management obligations and register their systems. The establishment of a new governance architecture, including the AI Office and AI Board, aims to ensure consistent and effective application of the AI Act.
