🚀 The #AIAct just passed in committee with a broad majority.
I am still rather sceptical when it comes to the conceptual approach of the draft law but I also acknowledge that we managed to improve the text significantly.
6 key points stick out 🧵👇

1️⃣ Precise scope: we aligned the #AI definition with the OECD and underlined that the #AIAct was mainly proposed for addressing legal gaps caused by machine learning and deep learning. Simple software is therefore not covered.

2️⃣ High-risk classification: with our changes, not every use case listed in Annex III will be automatically classified as high-risk. Instead only those #AI systems that pose a significant risk to health, safety and fundamental rights will qualify.
