EU tech chief: US will adopt AI guardrails despite regulatory divergence

At the G20 innovation summit, the Trump administration drew a contrast between US and EU AI regulation, but European Commission tech chief Henna Virkkunen argued the US will inevitably adopt similar guardrails. The dispute is shifting from whether to regulate AI to which specific safety measures are needed and how they are implemented. This signals ongoing transatlantic divergence in AI governance with potential implications for global tech standards.
