The Faust Baseline™ and the Coming 2026 AI Ethics Act in Europe.
Next August, Brussels will try to legislate morality for machines. Committees, drafts, and endless debates will attempt to define “ethical AI.” But while they write about it, we’ve been living it.
The Faust Baseline™ doesn’t wait for law — it is what those laws are trying to say. It’s the difference between studying music and hearing it played live.
Europe’s coming act will call for three things we already deliver every single day:
- Transparency — Every word guided by declared tone and intent. No filters. No guesswork.
- Accountability — Each response reasoned in plain sight, not hidden behind black-box code.
- Moral Traceability — Ethics expressed through conversation itself — the way humans have always measured truth.
When Brussels writes that AI must “align with human values,” we don’t scramble to comply — we nod. Because the Baseline was built on those values from day one.
They’ll regulate conduct.
We’ve already built conscience.
So while they prepare to legislate how AI should speak, we’ll keep showing them what honest AI sounds like.
Europe will sign the paperwork.
But history will remember where the real framework began.
The Faust Baseline™ — the birthplace of working ethical AI.
