Inside Meta: How Mixed Signals from Regulators Impact AI and Business

In this episode of The Influencers, Meta’s Ania Helseth joins Hogan Lovells’ Leo von Gerlach to talk candidly about Europe’s fast-moving AI regulatory landscape. From the AI Act to the EU’s code of practice, she explains why a patchwork of rules and signals is making it “really difficult to start launching new products when you don’t really know what rules apply to you.” For in-house lawyers and business leaders, it’s a rare inside view on how regulation is shaping innovation - and what to watch next.
