Artificial intelligence act : EU Council and Parliament strike a deal on the first rules for AI in the world

The EU's AI act is the first ever law on artificial intelligence, a regulatory framework that aims to make sure AI systems are safe, and that they respect the law and the EU's fundamental rights and values.

Following 3-day ‘marathon’ talks, the Council presidency and the European Parliament’s negotiators have reached a provisional agreement on the proposal on harmonised rules on artificial intelligence (AI), the so-called artificial intelligence act. The draft regulation aims to ensure that AI systems placed on the European market and used in the EU are safe and respect fundamental rights and EU values. This landmark proposal also aims to stimulate investment and innovation on AI in Europe.
