With the adoption of the European AI Act in 2024, regulation is catching up to the commitments we’ve already made. But we didn’t wait for legislation to take action. Our Ethics Council, training programs, processes and ethics representatives keep us ahead in the field. This focus on anticipating challenges reflects our belief that ethics and innovation must advance together.
Our Ethics Council does more than raise questions — it takes action. By reviewing our AI projects, training our teams and participating in the development of responsible solutions, it transforms principles into concrete actions that benefit our customers’ daily lives.
