Generative AI tools are evolving fast. So are the rules they write.

At our latest Open Terms Archive Community Call, the @pgmt team at @zemki, @unibremen presented their federated GenAI-Governance collection.

Early observations show:

– Constant policy updates
– Preference for opt-out mechanisms vs. opt-in
– Data-switching procedures
– Emerging terms types

📅 Community Calls happen the first Tuesday of every month. Join in!
