The EU’s groundbreaking Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act is inching closer to joining the bloc’s statute book. On April 27, the European Parliament (EP) reached a provisional political agreement on the text, subject to technical-level adjustments and a further committee vote in May.
The proposed legislation will then face an EP plenary vote, before moving to so-called trilogue negotiations in the second half of the year. As such, the world’s first comprehensive legal framework on AI could be in place before the end of 2023.
