ChatGPT not a risky instrument: the European Parliament seals ‘historic’ AI rules

class=”sc-cffd1e67-0 iQNQmc”>

Beautiful Generated Future: This is how ChatGPT visually transforms the “AI Act” passed by the EU.

In the future, there will be extensive regulation of artificial intelligence (AI) in Europe. The European Parliament finally approved an AI law in Strasbourg on Wednesday. It places demands on facial recognition or on text and image programs such as ChatGPT.

The MPs voted by a large majority in favor of the new rules. For example, a labeling requirement is planned: developers must mark texts, sounds and images generated with artificial intelligence so as not to mislead people.

Stricter rules should apply to ‘risky’ applications, such as facial recognition at train stations or other public places. In the future, a court order will be necessary. Mass surveillance using biometric data is, as in China, fundamentally prohibited.

“Europe is NOW setting global standards in AI. We regulate as little as possible – but as much as necessary!”Thierry Breton, EU Commissioner

Leading EU Commissioner for the Internal Market, Thierry Breton, called the new rules “historic”. According to him, it is the world’s first law in the field of artificial intelligence. He continues on Twitter: ««Europe is NOW setting global standards in AI. We regulate as little as possible – but as much as necessary!”

EU countries passed the AI ​​law in early February after weeks of debate. Due to concerns, especially in Germany and France, the decision had been on the rocks for weeks.

The FDP had expressed its concerns at the last minute, but agreed after the traffic light coalition reached an agreement. Transport Minister Volker Wissing (FDP), who is also responsible for digital affairs, then explained that he had achieved “improvements for small and medium-sized businesses”. The economy had warned against excessive demands, for example for startups such as Aleph Alpha in Heidelberg.

ChatGPT is not classified as high risk

According to its own statements, the German federal government is also working at EU level to ensure that so-called general-purpose AI, such as the chatbot ChatGPT, is not classified as a high-risk application. About a year ago, AI suddenly received a lot of attention through ChatGPT.

The application can communicate with users via text messages and provide detailed answers to questions within seconds. She can now also create images that look deceptively real. (AFP/boo)
