The Government of Canada published a code of practice for generative artificial intelligence development and use. In anticipation of lawmakers passing the proposed Artificial Intelligence and Data Act, the government's voluntary code will help potential covered entities "avoid harmful impacts, build trust in their systems, and transition smoothly to compliance with Canada's forthcoming regulatory regime." The code includes principles for safety, fairness, transparency and human oversight. Editor's note: Explore the IAPP AI Governance Center and subscribe to the AI Governance Dashboard.
