European AI Office initiates the drafting of Code of Practice on transparency of AI-generated content

The European AI Office has initiated the draft process for the Code of Practice on transparency of AI-generated content with a plenary meeting of independent experts. The Code of Practice aims to detail how providers and deployers of generative AI systems can comply with their transparency obligations laid down in Article 50(2) and (4) of the EU AI Act. The Code will facilitate the effective implementation of these transparency obligations, supporting practical arrangements for detection mechanisms and cooperation along the value chain to enable the public to distinguish AI-generated content and reduce risks of deception, manipulation, and misinformation. The drafting process engages working groups comprised of providers and deployers of AI systems and is expected to last 7 months, with the aim of publishing the final Code of Practice by June 2026, before the effective date of the transparency obligations on 2 August 2026.
