Europe has been an essential part of Cohere's development since the beginning of the company. Several members of our leadership team are based in Europe, and we have steadily expanded our team and business presence in the region. Our expertise in data security, and on-prem deployments for sovereign AI solutions has allowed us to develop strong collaborations with our government and business partners in Europe and beyond. As the leading secure AI platform for enterprise, being a responsible and trusted partner to our commercial and government customers is our priority. With that in mind, today Cohere is announcing that we intend to sign the EU AI Act Code of Practice for General Purpose AI models. This is the latest step in our commitments to meeting the European Union’s goals for responsibly developing safe and secure AI models and systems. This latest move builds on our longstanding track record for responsible AI development globally, including our signing of the Seoul Frontier AI Safety Commitments, Seoul Business Pledge, Canada Voluntary Code of Conduct and the Hiroshima Code of Conduct for Organizations Developing Advanced AI. Our commitment to safe and secure AI is described in our Secure AI Frontier Model Framework and backed by achieving the ISO standards 27001 and 42001. Cohere looks forward to building on this momentum and strengthening the partnerships we have established with businesses and governments in Europe. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eXyhfTzS
