TL;DR Summary

Europe has reached a provisional deal on landmark European Union rules governing the use of artificial intelligence (AI), making it the first major world power to enact laws in this area. The agreement covers various aspects, including the use of AI in biometric surveillance and the regulation of AI systems like ChatGPT. The deal requires transparency obligations for foundation models and general purpose AI systems, bans certain practices like cognitive behavioral manipulation and untargeted scraping of facial images, and grants consumers the right to launch complaints. The legislation is expected to enter into force early next year and could serve as a blueprint for other governments.
