Last year, we published this primer on the EU AI Act to lay out preliminary insight into how we were preparing for the implementation of these new legal requirements.

Since then we’ve been actively involved in the implementation of the text by taking part in the elaboration of the Code of Practice for General Purpose AI, a framework for AI providers to comply with the EU AI Act. After months of collective efforts alongside experts, civil society and industry, a final Code has been published. Today, we are announcing our decision to sign the Code of Practice and use it to demonstrate compliance with our relevant obligations under the EU AI Act.

By signing the Code we are taking a concrete step in our broader compliance plan with the EU AI Act. It reflects our commitment to ensuring continuity, reliability, and trust as regulations take effect, while continuing to partner with European businesses and citizens, bringing them increasingly capable, safe, and secure AI models to reap the benefits of the AI revolution.

Signing the Code reinforces many of the industry-leading safety and transparency measures we have pioneered over the past several years. We were one of the first companies to publish a comprehensive safety and security protocol, our Preparedness Framework (2023), which outlines our approach to deploying frontier AI models safely.
