30/07/2024

On July 12, 2024, the European AI Regulation was published in the Official Journal of the European Union. It will gradually come into force from August 1, 2024 until August 2, 2027 for the final measures.

The regulation aims to protect fundamental rights, democracy, the rule of law and environmental sustainability from the risks associated with artificial intelligence (AI), while encouraging innovation and making Europe a leading player in this field. The regulation establishes obligations for AI systems according to their potential risks and level of impact.

The Artificial Intelligence Act responds to citizens' proposals from the Conference on the Future of Europe.
