- Council of Europe Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence and Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law
Council of Europe, Committee on Artificial Intelligence (CAI), Council of Europe Treaty Series - No. 225, 2024.
The Council of Europe Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence and human rights, democracy and the rule of law is the first-ever international legally binding treaty in this field. It aims to ensure that activities within the lifecycle of artificial intelligence systems are fully consistent with human rights, democracy and the rule of law, while being conducive to technological progress and innovation. The Framework Convention complements existing international standards on human rights, democracy and the rule of law, and aims to fill any legal gaps that may result from rapid technological advances. In order to stand the test of time, the Framework Convention does not regulate technology and is essentially technology-neutral.
