The AI Act aims to \u201censure that Europeans can benefit from new technologies\u201d so long as they uphold \u201cUnion values, fundamental rights and principles.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If passed, the ambitious legislation would become the world\u2019s first AI law passed by a major regulator and, like GDPR, could quickly become a global standard. In fact, its international impact is already being felt, with lawmakers in Brazil citing the draft legislation as inspiration for their recent AI policy.<\/p>\n<p>But promoting innovation, encouraging economic growth and upholding fundamental rights is a complex and difficult task.

It categorises AI tools into four risk categories, from the unacceptable to those deemed to pose a minimal risk, and regulates them accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>Technology considered to have an unacceptable risk will be banned. These will likely include social scoring algorithms like those in China, as well as certain facial recognition and other real-time biometric identification systems. At the other end of the scale, systems with limited or minimal risks like email spam filters and chatbots will face barely any restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the most significant and contentious classification are those deemed to be \u2018high risk.\u2019 While not prohibited, manufacturers of these tools will be forced to comply with a number of requirements before selling their products. The constraints aim to diminish the risk of algorithmic errors, bias and discrimination while encouraging transparency and accountability. Technologies likely to fit into this category will likely include automated hiring tools, benefit scoring algorithms, and border management tools. However, there\u2019s still a lot still to be decided.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"CToWUd lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ci3.googleusercontent.com\/proxy\/436LpcpK-8-YTqID6HKgvdzxQf46L7jRnd8ffXiuz-2NK38U2O2cQ5B_SBA1rmbKLysKHsFz56k8WxETQmJ2_Zhm5YJ8Dmi26hPCdmDwDOHj1x1z34nocW9hVeTdgYCSdyMkuiRyjqX3KNg=s0-d-e1-ft#https:\/\/prod.context.news\/dA\/9302d355e3757b230332836872d46128\/picture\/Cameroon4.jpg\/640w\" alt=\"Officials supervise the delivery of digital ID cards to refugees from the Central African Republic at a camp in Cameroon\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\" data-bit=\"iit\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_5130625837624275205imgCaption\">Officials supervise the delivery of digital ID cards to refugees from the Central African Republic at the Gado-Badzere camp in Cameroon.
