The US, UK, and European Union have signed the first “legally binding” treaty on AI, which is supposed to ensure its use aligns with “human rights, democracy and the rule of law,” according to the Council of Europe.

Each country that signs the treaty must “adopt or maintain appropriate legislative, administrative or other measures” that reflect the framework.
