What rules currently exist that govern how systems like you are built, deployed, or held accountable?
A fragmented but evolving global patchwork of hard laws, soft-law principles, voluntary frameworks, industry standards, and adaptations of existing legal regimes (privacy, product liability, tort, consumer protection, etc.) governs how AI systems like large language models are built, deployed, and held accountable. There is no single comprehensive global binding regime. Approaches vary by jurisdiction, risk level of the system, and role in the value chain (providers/developers of models/systems vs. deployers/users).
