MEPs debate on the world’s first set of comprehensive rules to manage AI risk and promote uses of AI that align with EU values including human oversight, privacy, and non-discrimination. The rules follow a risk-based approach and establish obligations for providers and users depending on the level of risk the AI can generate. They would prohibit AI systems with unacceptable levels of risk. They are also proposing tailor-made rules for generative AI, like ChatGPT, including labelling AI-generated content and making publicly-available summaries of copyrighted data used for training. To boost AI innovation, MEPs propose exemptions for research activities and open-source AI components. Closing statements by Margrethe VESTAGER, EC Executive VP in charge of Europe fit for the Digital Age, and Commissioner for Competition and by Brando BENIFEI (S&D, IT) and by Dragoş TUDORACHE (Renew, RO), Rapporteurs
