France, Germany, and Italy Challenge EU's Draft AI Legislation, Threatening Regulatory Deadlock
France, Germany, and Italy have opposed the EU's draft AI legislation, particularly regulations concerning "foundation models" that underpin large AI language models. The three countries argue that strict restrictions on these models would harm European AI development and propose self-regulation through company pledges and codes of conduct instead. This opposition has led to a deadlock in negotiations over the EU's Artificial Intelligence Act, and it could potentially derail the entire legislative process.
