OpenAI says it will sign the EU’s final General Purpose AI Code of Practice ahead of the AI Act deadline.
The company says it helped draft the code and sees it as a path to meeting new EU requirements for general-purpose models.
OpenAI points to existing measures — including its Preparedness Framework, Safety Hub, Red Teaming Network, and Model Spec — as part of its compliance approach.
The move follows earlier commitments under the EU AI Pact and may set a template for how major AI providers prepare for Europe’s rules.
