AI governance must put trust, information integrity and child safety front and centre – backed by real accountability.
The European Broadcasting Union has called for AI governance frameworks to prioritize trust, information integrity, and child safety, arguing that these commitments must be backed by enforceable accountability rather than voluntary pledges.
Why this matters: Calling for accountability in AI governance is easy. Actually building it is where things fall apart. Children and public information ecosystems are two of the highest-stakes areas AI can affect, and both have historically been treated as afterthoughts once the technology is already deployed. The EBU speaking up matters because broadcasters sit at the center of the information integrity problem. But a call is not a rule. The gap between stated values and binding obligations is exactly where harm tends to happen.
