EU Commission Releases Guidelines for General AI Compliance

According to PANews, the European Commission has announced the release of the final version of the guidelines for general artificial intelligence (AI) conduct. These guidelines aim to assist industries in adhering to the EU's AI-related legislation. Developed by 13 independent experts, the guidelines incorporate feedback from over 1,000 small and medium-sized enterprises, academia, civil organizations, and large language model providers. The European Commission, along with the 27 member states, will review the guidelines to decide on their approval. Once approved, AI model providers will have the option to sign the guidelines. EU officials have indicated that companies choosing to sign will find it easier to demonstrate compliance with the EU's comprehensive AI regulatory requirements to the relevant authorities.
