2022 was a significant year for the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI).[1] The emergence of ChatGPT marked the end of the year. In the early weeks of 2023, Microsoft expressed interest in investing $10 billion in OpenAI, Chat GPT’s parent company.[2] This investment aimed to expedite the widespread adoption of AI in various industries.[3] It entailed integrating Chat GPT into everyday tools like Microsoft Suite.[4] This aligns with projections indicating that the global AI market’s revenue will grow at a rate of 19.6% annually, reaching $500 billion this year.[5] As AI becomes increasingly prevalent, there is a corresponding emphasis on regulatory measures. The events of 2022, including the EU’s adoption of the AI Act in December[6], the United States’ AI Bill of Rights in October[7], the UK’s AI Regulation Policy Paper in July[8], and China’s enforcement of the Algorithmic Recommendation Management Provisions in March, have set a robust precedent for the future.[9]
