The A.I. Act is a proposed regulatory framework by the European Union aimed at governing the development and use of artificial intelligence within its member states. The act categorizes AI systems based on risk levels, introducing obligations for developers and deployers of such technologies. High-risk AI systems face stricter requirements regarding transparency, safety, and accountability. The legislation emphasizes human oversight, data governance, and the ethical use of AI, promoting innovation while ensuring public safety and fundamental rights. The act is part of a broader EU strategy to create a digital single market and position Europe as a leader in the AI space.
