EU Artificial Intelligence act

What the AI act is

The AI act aims to ensure that artificial intelligence (AI) systems are developed and used responsibly. The rules impose obligations on providers and deployers of AI technologies and regulate the authorisation of artificial intelligence systems in the EU single market.

The law addresses risks linked to AI, such as bias, discrimination and accountability gaps, promotes innovation and encourages the uptake of AI.

As the world's first law regulating AI, the EU’s rules could set a global standard in AI regulation, just as the general data protection regulation (GDPR) has done for data privacy, promoting ethical, safe, and trustworthy artificial intelligence worldwide.
