Select a region and a risk tier to see how its rules bite.
Governments around the world are writing very different rulebooks for artificial intelligence. This 3D globe places a "regulatory tower" over each region: four stacked rings representing risk tiers, from unacceptable risk (banned outright) down to minimal risk (largely unregulated). Ring height and colour show how strictly each tier is controlled in that jurisdiction.
The EU AI Act (2024) can fine violators up to €35 million or 7% of global annual turnover — whichever is higher — for the most serious breaches, among the toughest tech-regulation penalties anywhere in the world.
A 3D globe where selecting a region raises a risk-tiered regulatory tower, letting you compare the EU's strict, rules-based AI Act against lighter-touch approaches in the US, China, UK and beyond.
Each tower stacks four risk tiers — unacceptable, high-risk, limited-risk and minimal-risk — with ring height and colour showing how strictly that jurisdiction actually regulates each tier.
Pick a region to fly the camera there and raise its tower, add a second region to compare side-by-side, and scrub the risk-tier slider to inspect what rules apply at each level.
The EU AI Act's top penalty — up to €35 million or 7% of global turnover — is higher than the EU's own GDPR maximum fine, making it one of the strictest tech laws in force anywhere.
