Summary/Abstract: The development of artificial intelligence (AI) must ensure human-centred and ethical operations, transparency and respect for fundamental rights. In addition to its obvious benefits, AI also entails a number of risks such as opaque decision-making. The aim of this paper is to present and analyse in detail the legal environment for AI in the European Union, with a particular focus on the principles and directives, as well as the current and possible future legal framework, the draft EU AI Act. The article discusses the concept and framework of the EU AI Act on artificial intelligence. A separate chapter reviews the risk-based approach at the heart of the regulation. It provides a detailed analysis of the systems categorized by risk, their requirements, and the regulatory solutions developed by the draft.
