Ei≈f(coveragei, enforcementi, ti),ti≪tj for several pairs (i,j)E_i \approx f(\text{coverage}_i,\ \text{enforcement}_i,\ t_i), \qquad t_i \ll t_j \text{ for several pairs } (i, j)

Why this formula appears here

Start with the plainest problem: elapsed enforcement time. China’s algorithm-filing regime has run since March 2022 — more than four years of registrations, security assessments and enforcement activity. The EU’s high-risk tier, the part of its Act closest in spirit to a general risk-based licence, will not bind most Annex III systems until December 2027 at the earliest [ 3 ] . The UK’s five principles have applied, non-statutorily, since 2023, but a regulator applying a principle it was already free to apply under its existing powers is a different claim from enforcing a new statute. Comparing outcomes today would mean comparing a system with years of live administrative data against one…

Comparing the Main Approaches to AI Governance and Regulation

This equation gives an approximation: it relates the quantities while allowing an approximation.
