Meta Platforms Rejects EU AI Code of Practice: A Call for Dialogue
Meta’s global affairs chief, Joel Kaplan, recently expressed strong opposition to the European Union’s artificial intelligence (AI) code of practice, claiming it could “stunt” innovation. This code, aimed at enhancing transparency and safety in AI, is seen by Kaplan as an overreach that introduces unnecessary legal uncertainties for developers.
Key Points:
- Legal Concerns: The code may hinder AI development and deployment in Europe.
- Industry Reactions: Companies like ASML and Airbus echo these sentiments, urging a two-year delay.
- OpenAI’s Stance: In contrast, OpenAI has committed to signing the code.
Kaplan emphasizes the need for a balanced approach that fosters innovation while ensuring safety.
