U.S. government pressuring Europe to drop AI rulebook, Bloomberg reports

The U.S. government is pushing back against the EU’s AI code of practice, arguing it would create stricter standards of transparency, risk-mitigation, and copyright rules for developers of advanced AI, Bloomberg’s Gian Volpicelli, Samuel Stolton, and Alberto Nardelli report. The code, still being finalized, is meant to provide a framework for tech companies to comply with the EU’s Artificial Intelligence Act, and the U.S. administration’s opposition to the code is part of a broader clash with the EU over tech regulations, with President Trump and others arguing that EU rules unfairly target U.S. companies.
