PANews reported on December 9 that according to Chinanews.com, citing Reuters, on the evening of the 8th local time, the European Parliament and EU member states reached a provisional agreement on the "Artificial Intelligence Act", including how to regulate artificial intelligence systems such as chatbot ChatGPT. "With today's political agreement around the Artificial Intelligence Act, the EU becomes the first region to set clear rules for the use of AI," said Thierry Bredon, EU Commissioner for the Internal Market. "The AI Act is not only a rulebook, but will also be a booster for EU start-ups and researchers to lead the global AI race," he added. According to the report, the details will be discussed in the coming days, which may change the form and content of the final legislation.

The European Commission's draft negotiating mandate for the proposed AI Act, presented in 2021, would strictly prohibit "AI systems that pose an unacceptable risk to human security", including systems that purposefully manipulate technology, exploit human weaknesses, or evaluate based on behavior, social status, and personal characteristics. The draft also requires AI companies to maintain human control over their algorithms, provide technical documentation, and establish risk management systems for "high-risk" applications. Each EU member state will have a supervisory body in place to ensure that these rules are followed.
