EU members come to provisional agreement on artificial intelligence laws

The European Union has come to a "provisional agreement on the proposal on harmonised rules on artificial intelligence (AI), the so-called artificial intelligence act". The law is far from complete, but the intial proposal's main elements are: "rules on high-impact general-purpose AI models that can cause systemic risk in the future, as well as on high-risk AI systems; a revised system of governance with some enforcement powers at EU level; extension of the list of prohibitions but with the possibility to use remote biometric identification by law enforcement authorities in public spaces subject to safeguards; and better protection of rights through the obligation for deployers of high-risk AI systems to conduct a fundamental rights impact assessment prior to putting an AI system into use". I don't really know if this is good or bad or even if it'll make a difference in practice, but good luck to everyone involved.
