AI Act

The AI Act is a proposed European law that sets rules for how artificial intelligence systems can be developed and used. Its goal is to ensure AI is safe, reliable, and respects fundamental rights like privacy and non-discrimination. The law classifies AI applications into levels of risk—unacceptable, high, limited, and minimal—and imposes specific requirements on the most risky systems, such as transparency and human oversight. Essentially, it aims to balance fostering innovation with protecting people and society from potential harms caused by AI.
