On March 13, 2024, the EU Parliament voted to pass the EU’s much-discussed AI Act (with 523 votes in favor, 46 against and 49 abstentions). For an insight into the AI Act’s progression through the EU lawmaking system, see our earlier posts: here, here and here.
The legal text of the regulation will now be reviewed before it is endorsed by the EU Council and then finally adopted. The AI Act will come into force 20 days after the final text is published in the Official Journal of the European Union, with a phased implementation timeline.
