EU Approves New Rules on Artificial Intelligence

Published: 13 March 2024 at 15:49

The European Parliament has approved new rules on artificial intelligence (AI) to ensure human control and benefit, with risk-based regulations categorizing AI applications as low or high-risk. Higher-risk AI systems, like AI-powered medical devices, will face more scrutiny, while low-risk applications, such as user recommendations, will have fewer restrictions. The regulations cover various activities like policing, requiring transparency from companies on AI usage. The rules ban high-risk applications like AI-based emotional tracking in schools and predictive policing, while companies like Google and OpenAI must comply with EU copyright laws and provide detailed model summaries.
