EU AI Act and AI use
If your company uses AI tools, parts of the AI Act already apply to you, such as AI literacy for staff. Other obligations moved to 2027 and 2028. Which ones depend on how you use AI.
What changed in the deadlinesAI tools employees use without the company knowing or approving them. Think of chatbots, browser plugins and AI features inside existing software. You cannot govern what you cannot see.
