The EU lawmakers spearheading the work on the AI rulebook suggested a first set of criteria to identify the most powerful foundation models that must follow a specific regime.

The AI Act is a landmark EU legislation to regulate Artificial Intelligence based on its potential to harm people. The file is currently at the last stage of the legislative process, so-called trilogues, whereby the EU Commission, Parliament, and Council hash out the final provisions.

One of the sticking points in this late stage of the negotiations has been dealing with foundation models like GPT-4, on which several AI applications can be built, like the world’s most famous chatbot, ChatGPT.

On Tuesday (7 November), Euractiv exclusively revealed that the Spanish EU Council presidency, which leads the negotiations on behalf of the Council, circulated a first draft of obligations for foundation models, including the most powerful ones, dubbed ‘high-impact’.

On Wednesday, the offices of the European Parliament’s co-rapporteurs Dragoș Tudorache and Brando Benifei shared a reaction to the presidency’s draft with MEPs. The co-rapporteurs’ text will be discussed at a political meeting on Thursday.

A technical meeting on the EU’s AI regulation broke down on Friday (10 November) after large EU countries asked to retract the proposed approach for foundation models. Unless the deadlock is broken in the coming days, the whole legislation is at risk.

The AI Act is a landmark bill to regulate Artificial Intelligence following a risk-based approach. The file is currently in the last phase of the legislative process, with the main EU institutions gathered in so-called trilogues to hash out the final dispositions of the law.

The EMFA is a legislative proposal to increase media independence and pluralism. The bill is currently at the last phase of the legislative process whereby the EU Council, Parliament and Commission meet in so-called trilogue formats to hash out the final provisions.

https://www.euractiv.com/section/artificial-intelligence/news/ai-act-eu-commission-attempts-to-revive-tiered-approach-shifting-to-general-purpose-ai/
The European Commission circulated on Sunday (19 November) a possible compromise on the AI law to break the deadlock on foundation models, applying the tiered approach to General Purpose AI and introducing codes of practice for models with systemic risks.

The AI Act is a landmark bill to regulate Artificial Intelligence based on its potential risks. The legislative proposal is currently at the last phase of the legislative process, so-called trilogues, between the EU Commission, Council and Parliament.

In the past weeks, the EU policymakers involved have been butting heads on regulating powerful foundation models like GPT-4, which powers the world’s most famous chatbot, ChatGPT, a versatile type of system known as General Purpose AI.
