The European Union has taken a significant step forward in its attempt to control the growth of generative AI. The continental lawmaking body has passed the AI Act, which is part of a multi-year effort to regulate AI while still fostering innovation.
The AI Act passed during a voting session on March 13. Before the measure was officially adopted, it was the subject of much debate in the European Parliament, and an on-demand version of that debate can be found on the Parliament’s YouTube channel.
The AI Act will give the E.U. the regulatory power to act on issues that arise in the field of AI development, including deepfakes, election misinformation, and copyright infringement. Like several major social platforms, the E.U. will require labels on AI-generated content to cut down on confusion.
The new law’s structure allows it to strengthen regulations without preventing companies from developing AI-inspired tools.

The members of European Parliament (MEPs) were impressed, with several taking to social media to praise the film and its message. “[Io Capitano is] a tremendously important and powerful work that should be screened in all schools across the continent,...
