How useful it is, we'll see.

You're never rewarded by being an early adopter.

Waiting till the last minute sometimes can work to your advantage.

That's what seems to have happened here.

The panic is coming because there are people who didn't think that this would happen.

It's not the first piece of regulation that digital companies have to deal with.

There's an awful lot out there.

It's a pain.

And I think small companies are complaining.

The impetus behind it was to try and make things a little bit easier.

But then you get into, well, why were they there in the first place?

idea is that it's quite easy to get a photo of somebody you know you're a 15 year old you're in class you can take a photo of a girl sitting next to you and you can go on one of these apps and create porn very quickly of somebody you know and some of the cases I've seen which looks the worst where where it is really was kids and that's pretty humiliating for a young girl um

But it's so easy to do.

And the idea would be that this shouldn't be on app stores.

This is something that shouldn't be so easily available.

And this was added to the AI Act Omnibus, which was the European Commission's chance to really go in there and retool some of its digital legislation.

And that's now up for the final decision making.

And I don't think it's particularly controversial.

Some of the discussions seem to have been about just how naked can you be?

The idea is, should you be able to make a photo of somebody wearing a bikini, for example?
