AI companies threaten to leave EU over proposed regulations.

OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, has warned that the company may consider leaving the EU if it fails to comply with the planned AI law, which could be the first to specifically regulate AI. The legislation could require generative AI companies to reveal which copyrighted material had been used to train their systems to create text and images. Altman is worried it would be technically impossible for OpenAI to comply with some of the AI Act's safety and transparency requirements. The EU aims to develop an AI pact with Google's parent company, Alphabet, before any legislation comes into effect.
