The world's first real AI rules are coming soon. Here's what they will look like.

• Governments across the world are at different stages of creating and enacting AI regulations.
• The EU may be the first to enact generative AI regulation. China takes a more restrictive stance.
• The US has relied on industry experts while the EU and Brazil aim to establish a categorical system.

Generative AI exploded into the public consciousness in late 2022. A year from now, the technology could be one of the most regulated in the industry.

Across the globe, from the US to the EU and Brazil, lawmakers are urgently considering, and in China's case enacting, rules for managing AI and reigning in some of the more alarming use cases.
