U.S.–EU TTC Sets Joint AI Evaluation Priorities — December 6, 2023
The U.S.–EU Trade and Technology Council issued a joint statement advancing shared AI risk management, evaluation, and standards initiatives.
The fifth TTC ministerial reaffirmed cooperation on testing advanced AI models, developing a catalogue of AI evaluations, and coordinating with the G7 Hiroshima Process. Partners launched pilots on shared benchmark datasets, reporting templates, and joint research through the U.S. AI Safety Institute and EU AI Office.
- Joint evaluations. The TTC will align methodologies for assessing generative AI risks, safety benchmarks, and transparency reporting.
- Standards coordination. Officials tasked standards bodies with accelerating interoperable guidance on AI assurance, watermarking, and cybersecurity.
- Implementation pilots. The statement expands cooperation on privacy-enhancing technologies, SME sandboxes, and support for trustworthy AI in third countries.
Organizations operating transatlantic AI services should track TTC deliverables to harmonise assurance evidence across U.S. and EU regulators.
