The European Union (EU) achieves a provisional milestone agreement on AI governance rules after years of negotiations. The AI Act, focusing on eight key elements, including high-risk AI systems and prohibited practices, aims to strike a balance between fostering innovation and protecting citizens' rights. Non-compliance penalties range from £7.5 million to £35 million. The EU positions itself as a global benchmark in AI governance, providing flexibility for future adaptations.
