Challenges in EU as Lawmakers Struggle to Agree on Generative AI Regulation in AI Act

Legislators in the European Union need help reaching a consensus on how to govern generative AI, which includes ChatGPT systems, as part of the planne

Legislators in the European Union need help reaching a consensus on how to govern generative AI, which includes ChatGPT systems, as part of the planned AI Act. Foundation models—like those created by Microsoftbacked OpenAI—represent a significant obstacle in the talks. Some experts in France, Germany, and Italy support letting generative AI model developers selfregulate. In contrast, others suggest a tiered system for controlling foundation models depending on user numbers. The AI Act attempts to control artificial intelligence in the EU. This might be in jeopardy due to disagreements on these and other issues. The last negotiations are set for December 6, and should an agreement not be reached, the act could be shelved because of a deadline for European parliamentary elections next year. Read More..

EU Reaches Agreement on Cyber Resilience Act to Safeguard Connected Devices

The Cyber Resilience Act, which aims to defend internetconnected gadgets, including computers, refrigerators, mobile apps, and smart devices, against

The Cyber Resilience Act, which aims to defend internetconnected gadgets, including computers, refrigerators, mobile apps, and smart devices, against cyber attacks, has been agreed upon by legislators and EU member states. The law, which the European Commission put out in September 2021, applies to any connected goods directly or indirectly to other networks or devices. It sets cybersecurity standards to design, develop, produce, and market hardware and software products. Manufacturers must evaluate cybersecurity risks, offer conformance declarations, and resolve issues throughout the anticipated product life or for a minimum of five years. The regulations also improve reporting of cyber events and transparency. Compared to the estimated €29 billion in compliance expenses, the EU estimates that these steps might save corporations roughly €290 billion a year. Read More..
