EU Commissioner urges labeling of AI-generated content to combat disinformation.

The European Commission's deputy head, Vera Jourova, has called for companies deploying AI tools with the ability to generate disinformation to label such content as part of their efforts to combat fake news. Jourova warned Twitter, which quit the EU Code of Practice to tackle disinformation last week, to expect more regulatory scrutiny. Companies such as Google, Microsoft and Meta Platforms that have signed up to the code should report next month on AI safeguards they have put into place.
