To regulate the burgeoning field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its potential impact on society, the European Commission has announced the approval of the AI Act.<\/h2>\n
Initially proposed in April 2021, these comprehensive regulations, set to be universally implemented across all Member States, will provide a robust framework for AI to protect EU citizens and help drive the development of AI technologies.<\/p>\n
The finalised political agreement awaits formal approval from both the European Parliament and the Council. Once published in the Official Journal, it will come into effect after 20 days.<\/p>\n
The AI Act’s enforcement will begin two years after its enactment, although certain clauses will take effect sooner: specific prohibitions in six months and regulations concerning General Purpose AI in twelve.<\/p>\n
