Artificial Intelligence (Regulation) Bill [HL]

The Artificial Intelligence (Regulation) Bill establishes a regulatory framework for AI systems used in the UK, requiring developers and deployers to assess and manage risks before releasing AI into the market. The bill creates oversight mechanisms to ensure highrisk AI applications, such as those used in recruitment, law enforcement, or critical infrastructure, meet safety and transparency standards. It grants regulators powers to investigate breaches, issue fines, and require companies to modify or withdraw harmful AI systems. The legislation aims to balance innovation with public protection by setting binding requirements rather than purely voluntary guidelines.
