“European Union and United States Draft Common Code of Conduct for Artificial Intelligence”

The European Union and the United States have announced a draft common code of conduct on artificial intelligence, which would apply voluntarily to the sector, at a time when the major powers are working on regulation.

“In the coming weeks, we will present a draft code of conduct on artificial intelligence,” said European Commissioner for Competition Margrethe Vestager, during a joint press conference with the head of American diplomacy Antony Blinken. .

It will be a question of “establishing voluntary codes of conduct which would be open to all countries sharing the same ideas”, specified the latter, at a time when Westerners fear to let China give the lead on regulation.

The European Union (EU) wants to be the first in the world to adopt a complete and mandatory legal framework to limit the excesses of artificial intelligence, but its entry into force will not happen before the end of 2025.
