Trump-Backed AI Pact Lets Tech Companies Police Themselves
Executives from Nvidia, OpenAI and Anthropic signed a voluntary, non-binding pledge on AI standards, contrasting with the EU, where firms face fines of up to 3% of turnover for violations.

The heads of major artificial intelligence companies, including Nvidia, OpenAI and Anthropic, have signed a voluntary commitment on AI standards associated with the Trump administration, according to Euronews.
The agreement carries no legal force, meaning compliance with the standards it sets out is left to the companies themselves.
This contrasts with the European Union's regulatory framework for artificial intelligence, under which companies can face fines of up to 3% of their turnover for violating the bloc's rules.
The difference illustrates diverging approaches between the United States and the European Union on governing the AI industry, with the voluntary pact relying on companies' own commitments rather than legally enforceable obligations.
