Global Powers Unite to Tackle AI and China's Dominance in Trade and Tech.
European and American officials gathered in Sweden for tech and trade talks and worked up a voluntary "code of conduct" designed to prevent harm from artificial intelligence (AI), including generative AI. The goal is to come up with non-binding standards around transparency, risk audits, and other technical details for companies developing the technology. The EU is moving ahead with mandatory rules for AI, while the US prefers a more hands-off approach, relying on industry to come up with its own safeguards.
