Quick Glance: EU to Regulate AI Systems Including ChatGPT
  • EU lawmakers voted on Wednesday to adopt a key text that will serve as the basis for a future law regulating artificial intelligence systems, such as ChatGPT, while also promoting innovation in the technology.

  • Although the EU's plans for regulating AI systems date back to 2021, the urgency of drafting rules increased when ChatGPT emerged last year, showcasing the rapid advances and possible risks of AI.

  • The proposed law aims to regulate AI systems based on their level of risk, meaning higher risks to individuals' rights or health would result in greater obligations for the systems.

  • Generative AI systems, like ChatGPT and DALL-E, must inform users that content was produced by a machine and not a human. Additionally, lawmakers proposed banning AI systems that use biometric surveillance, emotion recognition, and predictive policing.
