High-level summary of the AI Act
AI Act 2 years ago 16 ● 2 sources
The European Union's AI Act classifies AI systems by risk level, prohibiting unacceptable-risk applications like social scoring and manipulative systems while establishing detailed regulations for high-risk systems across domains including biometrics, employment, law enforcement, and critical infrastructure. Providers of high-risk AI systems must implement risk management systems, conduct data governance, provide technical documentation, and ensure human oversight capabilities throughout the system lifecycle. General-purpose AI model providers must document their training data and comply with copyright directives, with additional requirements for models presenting systemic risk including adversarial testing and incident reporting.
