As part of the bill, AI platforms are expected to mitigate the risk of chatbots “communicating harmful content” and engaging in harmful behavior, while also introducing “emergency measures” for dealing with crisis situations.

Ms Littlewood was informed that Mr Morris would have to go through “retraining” to make sure he was carrying out the tests in the right way.
From that month onwards, Mr Morris began withholding three hours of pay a week from Ms Littlewood.
