A comprehensive risk-based AI law with bans and high-risk duties substantially strengthens protective digital-rights regulation.

On 13 March 2024 the European Parliament adopted the Artificial Intelligence Act, the world's first comprehensive horizontal AI law, with co-rapporteurs Brando Benifei (S&D, Italy) and Dragos Tudorache (Renew, Romania) steering the file. The regulation takes a risk-based approach, banning certain practices, imposing strict duties on high-risk systems, and adding transparency rules for general-purpose AI. It was formally signed in June 2024 and is being phased in, with the first prohibitions applying from February 2025.
