Summary
Tabled on 15 September 2026 by René Pilato and 69 MPs from the La France insoumise group, bill no. 3149 would subject general-purpose AI models and certain high-risk systems to prior authorisation issued by a new national AI authority (Autorité nationale de l'intelligence artificielle, ANIA). This authority could impose fines of up to 7% of worldwide turnover. The text would also regulate the use of AI in HR decisions: recruitment, pay, appraisal and termination of contract could not rely solely on the outputs of an AI system, and a documented human review would be required, failing which the decision would be void. The article details the possible tensions with the EU AI Act, which relies on self-assessment and entrusts the oversight of general-purpose models to the European Commission, as well as the still uncertain progress of the text, as an initiative from an opposition group.
