The European Commission has created a new agency to regulate artificial intelligence
The European Commission has announced that it will create a new office whose main task will be to regulate the applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in the territory of the European Union. The move comes as part of a new, comprehensive EU regulation on artificial intelligence. According to Wednesday’s announcement, the Brussels body wants to ensure that the benefits of AI technologies can be used while minimizing the risks.
Office staff—technologists, lawyers, and economists—will play a key role in implementing AI-related regulations, particularly around general-purpose AI models. The agency also promotes research and innovation in reliable artificial intelligence within the EU. The office will consist of 140 people and will be located within the European Commission.
According to the new legislation, artificial intelligence systems are categorized based on their risk. High-risk AI systems must meet strict requirements and obligations in order to enter the EU market. Furthermore, the use of certain AI applications, such as cognitive behavioral manipulation and social profiling, will be prohibited.
