Sao Francisco:
Meta Platforms will not immediately join the EU AI Charter, a company spokesperson will announce this on the third day.
The agreement is a temporary measure before the Block IA Act comes into full effect.
EU lawmakers in May approved the law, which sets out unpublished rules governing the development and implementation of artificial intelligence.
AI Leo means that companies will be required to provide detailed summaries of the data used to train their AI models.
Finally, the European Commission stated that most of the rules of the law will come into effect on August 2, 2026.
Once in force, companies are incentivized to create a voluntary AI charter to implement key commitments of the rules.
“We are satisfied with the EU’s harmonized rules, and at the moment we are focusing on our work in accordance with the AI law,” a Meta spokesperson said, adding that Facebook’s controller could join the AI charter in 2019.
The AI Lei is the fifth pillar of EU legislation and will operate in conjunction with the Digital Markets Act, the Digital Services Act, the Dice Government Act and the Dice Act.
