Meta Delays Joining EU's AI Pact

Meta Platforms has announced it will not immediately join the European Union's AI Pact, which serves as a lead-up to the AI Act scheduled to be enforced on August 2, 2026. The AI Act will require companies to provide detailed summaries of data used in their AI models. While Meta is working on compliance with the upcoming law, it may consider joining the AI Pact later.
Meta Platforms has announced it will not immediately join the European Union's AI Pact, which is intended as a precursor to the comprehensive AI Act set to take effect on August 2, 2026.

The AI Act will impose requirements on companies to provide detailed summaries of the data used to train their AI models.

While Meta supports the harmonization of EU rules and is currently focusing on compliance efforts under the impending AI Act, the company has indicated that it may consider joining the AI Pact at a later stage.

The AI Act is part of a broader framework of EU legislation, including the Digital Markets Act, Digital Services Act, Data Governance Act, and Data Act.
