The European Parliament has passed a new law, known as the 'AI Act', which includes a ban on police officers using real-time facial recognition technology. The law was proposed by the European Commission in April 2021 and aims to regulate the use of artificial intelligence. Outright bans on high-risk AI forms will be implemented later this year, while rules on systems like ChatGPT will apply after 12 months.
Developers of general-purpose AI models will have to disclose the content used to train their systems and comply with EU copyright law
