Experts are ringing the alarm bells over the risks unfettered development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology could pose to humanity. Enter the European Union (EU), already a leader in data protection and privacy rights, where the EU Parliament has agreed on a law governing AI technology.

Jonathan Dambrot, CEO of Cranium, says it’s not surprising that the EU, once again, has taken the lead on tech regulation.

“We saw this with GDPR and data privacy, and now we’re seeing the same with AI,” he says.
