Strengthening the European Union AI Act
What is the EU AI Act?
The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act is a draft European Union law on AI. The law assigns applications of AI to one of three risk categories (unacceptable, high and low risk), and regulates them accordingly.
Our policy team have set up a thematic website which includes the Act itself, analyses, and updates on the latest legislative developments. To learn more about the Act, please visit the site or sign up to our dedicated AI Act newsletter.

Our position
You can download our position paper to read more about how we think the Act can be improved. Our position has been developed in close consultation with our network of leading AI researchers and think tanks, such as the Center for Human Compatible AI (CHAI).
Before the draft Act was published by the European Commission, FLI published this open letter from some of Europe’s leading AI researchers, and submitted feedback on the initial white paper.
