Abstract

The general approach of the Draft of AI Act (December 2022) expanded the scope to explicitly include General Purpose Artificial Intelligence. This paper presents an overview of the new proposals and analyzes their implications. Although the proposed regulation has the merit of regulating an expanding field that can be applied in different domains and on a large scale due to its dynamic context, it has some flaws. It is essential to ascertain whether we are dealing with a general-risk category or a specific category of high-risk. Moreover, we need to clarify the allocation of responsibilities and promote cooperation between different actors. Finally, exemptions to the regulation should be properly balanced to avoid liability gaps.
