Google Joins EU Code for Powerful AI Models Rebuffed by Meta

EUROPEAN UNION, JUL 30 – Google aims to enhance European access to advanced AI tools by signing the EU's AI code despite concerns it may slow innovation, while Meta refuses to sign over similar fears.

  • On Wednesday, Google announced it will commit to the EU's artificial intelligence guidelines for broad AI systems ahead of the regulations taking effect on August 2.
  • The EU published this voluntary code earlier this month to guide compliance with the AI Act, while Meta declined to sign citing innovation concerns.
  • The code targets transparency, copyright, and security, with tools on the market given two years to comply and new tools required immediate compliance.
  • Meta's global affairs chief Joel Kaplan expressed concerns that Europe's approach to AI is misguided, cautioning that the code introduces legal complexities extending beyond the AI Act's provisions.
  • Google’s Kent Walker cautioned the rules risk slowing AI development and deployment in Europe, but Google hopes signing will improve access to advanced AI tools.
