The European Artificial Intelligence Act is a landmark legal framework set to regulate AI systems across the EU. Effective from August 2024, with key provisions starting in 2026, the act sets out to govern how AI technologies are developed, used, and deployed. Some elements of the act, such as rules on prohibited AI practices and literacy, are already in effect. This framework puts significant responsibility on developers and businesses using AI to ensure compliance with governance, risk management, and accountability.
Businesses involved in the AI ecosystem face extensive obligations under this act, beyond just development. They must prepare for comprehensive evaluations of their AI systems to align with the new regulations. This includes data readiness assessments, risk management, and accountability measures critical for maintaining compliance. Proactive measures include conducting detailed scoping and gap assessments to identify compliance risks and creating a roadmap for navigating the regulatory requirements effectively.
