The European Commission has launched a consultation on a Code of Practice fo proivdes of general-purpose Artificial Intelligence (GPAI) models.
The Commission invites GPAI providers with operations in the EU, businesses, civil society representatives, rights holders and academic experts to submit their views and findings, which will feed into the Commission's upcoming draft of the Code of Practice on GPAI models. Interested parties are also invited to provide input on ensuring trustworthy general-purpose AI models in the EU.
The Code of Practice, foreseen by the Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act), will address critical areas such as transparency, copyright-related rules, risk identification and assessment, risk mitigation, and internal risk management.
In addition, the feedback from the consultation will also inform the work of the AI Office, which will supervise the implementation and enforcement of the AI Act rules on GPAI. The AI Office is developing a template and guidelines for summarising training data, used to build the GPAI model. The template and guidelines will be adopted by the Commission and contribute to further discussions on the Code.
The AI Act, which enters into force on 1 August 2024, aims to foster responsible AI development and deployment in the EU. The provisions on GPAI will enter into application 12 months after the AI Act enters into force. The Commission expects to finalise the Code of Practice by April 2025.
Participants can find more information on the consultation on the Code of Practice for GPAI (deadline to submit your views 10 September), as well as information on how to join the upcoming drafting process (deadline for expression of interest 25 August).

The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
