The European Union (EU) has taken an important step towards creating a more robust framework for artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. The draft regulation, called the “General Artificial Intelligence Code of Conduct” (GPAI) and consisting of 36 pages in total, will guide risk management for the development and use of artificial intelligence models.
What does the draft General Artificial Intelligence Business Code cover?
First of all, let us state that the draft is an important strategic document that the EU plans to implement to regulate the effects of artificial intelligence in various areas. The GPAI comprehensively defines artificial intelligence technologies, starting from general models (e.g. large language models).
This definition covers AI systems that are self-monitoring with large data sets and can be used for different tasks. It states that such systems should be regulated regardless of how they are brought to market or what applications they are integrated into.
The draft outlines in detail ways to identify and mitigate risks associated with using AI. It also provides recommendations to help companies comply with regulatory requirements. The EU will move forward with a “tiered regulation” system, classifying AI models according to their complexity and potential risk levels.
In other words, it will ensure that stronger AI models are used with stricter controls. Meanwhile, the draft regulation will not only keep technological advances under control, but will also ensure that AI technology is developed in a reliable and ethical manner. In other words, in the coming period, we will use AI models in a controlled and secure manner.
