The EU AI Act is the European law on artificial intelligence. It sorts AI by risk and sets rules for each level.
Example
Certain AI practices, such as social scoring, are banned in the EU.
For pros
The regulation entered into force on 1 August 2024 and applies in stages. Bans and AI literacy have applied since 2 February 2025, most rules since 2 August 2026. After the 2026 amendment (Regulation (EU) 2026/1744), high-risk rules apply from 2 December 2027 or 2 August 2028.
