Regulation

A moving picture.

Approaches

The EU AI Act tiers obligations by risk. Others rely on sectoral rules, existing consumer and discrimination law, or voluntary commitments. Requirements differ sharply by jurisdiction.

Existing law already covers much of it: discrimination, product safety, data protection.
Specifics change quickly; check current rules rather than any summary, this one included.

Compliance as a floor

Legal minimums lag practice. Organisations acting only when required tend to discover the requirement through an incident.
