Elon Musk's xAI on Thursday, July 31 announced it would sign a chapter on safety and security in the EU's code of practice, designed to help companies comply with the bloc's latest artificial intelligence (AI) rules.
Joining this code, compiled by 13 independent experts, is voluntary. Companies that refuse will not get legal certainty given to the signatories.
The EU code has three chapters: transparency, copyright, as well as safety and security. While guidance on transparency and copyright applies to all general AI providers, safety and security chapters are aimed at the most advanced AI model providers.

"XAI supports AI safety and will sign a Chapter of Safety and Security in the European Union AI Law Practice Code. Although the AI Law and the Code have parts that support AI safety, other parts contain requirements that are very detrimental to innovation, and copyright terms are clearly beyond the limits," xAI wrote in a post on X.
Previously, Alphabet (Google) said it would sign the code of practice, while Microsoft president Brad Smith said his company would most likely sign it.
On the other hand, Meta (the Facebook owner) said it would not sign the code, arguing that the code created legal uncertainty for AI model developers and implemented measures that exceeded the scope of the AI Law.
