“We have made history today,” Brando Benifei, a member of the European Parliament working on the EU AI Act, told journalists. Detailed summaries of the copyrighted data used to train these AI systems would also have to be published. AI systems with minimal or no risk, such as spam filters, fall largely outside of the rules.

The Act also requires EU member states to establish at least one regulatory “sandbox” to test AI systems before they are deployed.
