Privacy, indiscriminate data collection, concentration of power are the real threats here.

Talking about environmental impact with no numbers to back it up, and ignoring the fact that energy availability is simply a matter of political will now, with solar and wind, just detracts from the real conversations to be had.

What are the human rights costs of a human rights regime constituted by unelected bureaucrats seeking power over society via moral posturing?

This is not how I wanted intellectual property to die. A special "IP Laundering" loophole for big tech companies is WORSE than the intellectual property issues we had before.

ah yes, another highly valuable input, I'm sure. just like the last one I saw from these experts.

>Amnesty International stated that, while EU policymakers present the AI Act as a global model for AI regulation, the legislation fails to take basic human rights principles into account and offers only limited protections to impacted and marginalised people. It argued that the Act does not ban the reckless use and export of what it calls "draconian AI technologies", fails to ensure equal protection for migrants, refugees and asylum seekers, and lacks adequate accountability and transparency provisions, which in its view risks exacerbating human rights abuses.[54]
