That is the question. AI is an ill-defined marketing BS, what is the actual definition in the law? Artificial Intelligence as used in the science/industry is a pretty broad term, and even more narrow "machine learning" is notoriously hard to define. Another question is that all this is being used for more than a decade for a lot of legitimate things which can also be easily misused to create biological weapons (AlphaFold), how does it regulate it? The article doesn't answer these questions, what matters is where exactly the actual proposed law draws the line in the sand. The devil is always in the details.
