Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman have expressed support for the EU's AI Act following discussions with European Commission Thierry Breton. Breton's discussions with Zuckerberg suggested alignment with the EU's risk-based approach to AI regulation, including measures such as watermarking.
Altman expressed appreciation for the EU's serious approach to AI regulation and said OpenAI's goal is to work in line with the European market, including on watermarking to make AI content traceable.
