Tengrinews.kz - The world's first artificial intelligence law came into effect on August 1 in Europe, citing Euronews.

The new regulation classifies all AI systems by risk level, from low to unacceptable. It sets rules for the use of these tools, including facial recognition systems, predictive analytics, and generative AI.

Starting in February next year, certain AI tools will be banned, such as real-time facial recognition, with some exceptions. Other high-risk AI tools, such as those used for detecting illegal migrants at borders, will face strict regulations, with companies and government agencies given up to two years to adapt.

The European Commission is establishing a body to oversee compliance with the law, and member states will need to create national regulatory institutions.

What will change in Europeans' lives with the AI law?

The law introduces labeling for AI-generated content to help people identify deepfakes that falsely represents someone as saying or doing something they never did. This aims to increase transparency. It also bans the use of AI for emotion recognition in workplaces and educational institutions. Additionally, certain uses of AI will be subject to inspections. For example, AI systems used by doctors for patient interactions will be checked to ensure data security and safe application.

Companies that fail to comply with the new regulations face hefty fines of up to seven percent of their annual global revenue.
