Europe Moves to Ban AI Nudification Tools Under Updated AI Act

The European Council finalized amendments to the EU AI Act as part of the Omnibus VII package, proposing a ban on AI nudification tools and tighter rules for handling sensitive personal data. The proposal also adjusts deadlines for high-risk AI systems, reinstates compulsory registration in the EU high-risk AI database, and follows concerns raised by the Grok chatbot incident on X. #EUAIAct #Grok
