ohlennart · x · 2026-07-15
The author argues that the EU AI Act is generally a bad piece of legislation, but highlights two relatively acceptable parts:

- The Safety and Security section within the Code of Practice
The post also includes a link to a ChatGPT-generated breakdown of the common themes in these clauses, essentially debating which parts of the EU's AI regulatory framework are reasonable and which remain controversial.
