EU AI Act
The world's first comprehensive, systematic AI regulatory framework, which entered into force in the European Union in 2024. It classifies AI systems by risk level and imposes strict documentation, logging, transparency, and human oversight requirements on high-risk systems. Non-compliance can result in fines of up to 7% of global annual turnover.
Core Facts
The EU Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act) explicitly requires that high-risk AI systems must have human oversight and intervention capabilities.
欧盟的《人工智能法案》（EU AI Act）于2024年正式生效，将AI系统按风险等级分类管理
The EU AI Act officially came into effect in 2024, explicitly requiring high-risk AI systems to provide explainable decision-making rationale

Jnvoy writes audit logs to PostgreSQL and supports one-click generation of PDFs of FCA and EU AI Act compliance reports.
The European Commission replied that "the clock cannot stop", and the rules for general-purpose AI models started as scheduled in August 2025.
In July 2025, European business leaders published an open letter requesting that the European Commission pause the EU AI Act for two years; signatories included Arthur Mensch, CEO of France's Mistral AI, and Robin Rombach, CEO of Germany's Black Forest Labs.
The EU AI Act explicitly does not regard a model's self-judgment as a sufficient safety guarantee.
The study explicitly maps its mechanism to the provisions of the EU AI Act pertaining to high-risk credit scoring.
OpenAI announced it will extend its technical approach to content provenance into the text domain in response to EU regulatory requirements.
The EU AI Act, U.S. state privacy regulations such as the CCPA, and regulators in multiple countries are exploring dedicated compliance requirements for AI training data.
There is still controversy over the threshold for determining whether general-purpose AI (GPAI) constitutes a 'systemic risk,' and enforcement mechanisms are still being established.
The U.S. NIST has released the AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF), and the EU AI Act requires mandatory testing for high-risk systems.
