Summary by Bing AI:

The article reports on the progress of the EU's Artificial Intelligence Act, which aims to be the world's first law regulating artificial intelligence (AI). The law would introduce rules and safeguards for various applications of AI, such as facial recognition, emotional recognition, chemical weapons, and deepfakes. The article interviews Dragoș Tudorache, a Romanian MEP and co-rapporteur of the parliamentary committee that drafted the legislation. He expresses his optimism that the final text can be agreed by Wednesday, 25 October 2023, after four years of work. He also says that he is more optimistic than pessimistic about AI, as long as there are some guardrails to protect the citizens' rights and interests.
