Although there are currently no globally acceptable regulations over Artificial Intelligence, governments, and regulatory bodies have seen the need to develop and enforce frameworks that will address the increasing concerns about the safety of Artificial Intelligence. The European AI Act is the first comprehensive legal framework on AI worldwide.
The EU AI Act states that it assigns applications of AI to three risk categories:
First, applications and systems that create an unacceptable risk, such as government-run social scoring of the type used in China, are banned.
Second, high-risk applications, such as a CV-scanning tool that ranks job applicants, are subject to specific legal requirements.
Lastly, applications not explicitly banned or listed as high-risk are largely left unregulated.
Cybersecurity of Artificial Intelligence in the AI Act focuses on the cybersecurity requirement for high-risk AI systems, as set out in Article 15 of the European Commission’s proposal for the AI Act.
