LULEA, Sweden : The United States and European Union should push the artificial intelligence industry to adopt a voluntary code of conduct within months to provide safeguards while new laws are developed, EU tech chief Margrethe Vestager said on Wednesday.

That is obviously way too late," Vestager told reporters before a meeting of the joint EU-U.S Trade and Technology Council in Sweden."We need to act now." Leaders of the G7 nations called earlier this month for the development of technical standards to keep AI"trustworthy", urging international discussions on topics such as governance, copyrights, transparency and the threat of disinformation
"If the two of us take the lead with close friends, I think we can push something that will make us all much more comfortable with the fact that generative AI is now in the world and is developing at amazing speeds," she said.
