The European Union has published its AI content labelling playbook, a voluntary Code of Practice to help companies meet transparency rules that become law on August 2. The final Code, released on June 10, outlines practical steps for generative AI builders and deployers to mark AI output. It covers deepfakes and AI-generated text on public interest matters, plus disclosure when interacting with AI systems. The Code is open for signatures, with binding rules applying regardless.

Tencent EdgeOne Makers is an edge platform for modern web apps and AI agents, offering serverless functions, storage, observability, and more, with support for multiple frameworks and languages to avoid vendor lock-in.
