Microsoft launches code of conduct with limits on the development of cutting-edge AI models

oglobo14 September 2026 at 16:42

Microsoft launched a new code of conduct that imposes limits on the development of cutting-edge artificial intelligence models. The document, developed over months by company researchers, spans 15,000 words and establishes guiding principles for AI creation.

The release coincides with commitments made by major AI laboratories to slow the development of the most advanced models, following a series of security incidents that raised widespread concerns about the existential risks of the technology.

According to Microsoft's document, AI models should not have rights or legal personality. Additionally, they should not be designed to escape human control or deceive users.

Why this matters

This code of conduct may establish a new standard for the AI industry, influencing how other companies approach responsible development. Readers who use Microsoft products or rely on AI in their work may be affected by changes in features and availability of advanced models in the future. WHY: This document may influence the future of AI development across the sector, potentially affecting companies and professionals who depend on these technologies. Microsoft's decision to establish clear limits may create a precedent for other companies in the sector.

Quantum Economics: When the Rules of Linear Economics Stop Working (Part I)

The article presents the concept of "Quantum Economics", a new economic paradigm in which intelligence, technology and capital can be scaled independently of labor and organizational size, where multiple possibilities coexist, new forms of abundance and scarcity, and less linear relationships between resources, production and value. The author identifies four fundamental transformations: the separation between production and work made possible by AI and robotics, intelligence as a scalable production factor, the inversion of the logic of deciding before executing to experimenting before deciding, and the coexistence of extreme abundance with new forms of scarcity. The convergence between AI, quantum technologies, biotechnology and digital infrastructures is presented as the multiplier that enables and accelerates these breaks in traditional economic relations.
