Regulatory divergences in the draft AI act: Differences in public and private sector obligations

Print

We find that the tools for law enforcement to detect deep-fakes are considered to be high-risk, while deep-fakes themselves fall in the low-risk category. This is a peculiar divergence that appears to be grounded in the assumption that deep fakes (employed mostly by private actors for the time being) harbour less risks than AI systems in the hands of a public actor for the purpose of detecting deep fakes.
