European Union takes the global lead in AI legislation

The European Union has implemented the world's first comprehensive AI legislation, known as the European Artificial Intelligence Act, to ensure the trustworthy development and use of AI technology within its member states. The Act aims to protect fundamental rights and establish a harmonised internal market for AI across all EU countries. It categorises AI systems based on risk levels, with stringent requirements for high-risk applications.

The AI Act prohibits AI practices that pose unacceptable risks, such as systems manipulating human behavior or biometric systems used for certain purposes. It also introduces transparency obligations for AI usage, including labeling AI-generated content like deep fakes. The legislation differentiates between high-risk, limited-risk, and minimal-risk AI systems, each with specific obligations and controls.
