The EU AI Act sets strict 2025–26 rules for AI providers
The EU AI Act is the first comprehensive AI framework, and there will be no grace period—core obligations kick in on August 2 2025, with heightened requirements for high‑risk systems in August 2026. It bans social scoring, covert biometric categorization, emotion‑tracking in the workplace and other manipulative uses. General‑purpose AI providers must document training data, publish transparency reports and notify regulators if models are deemed “systemic.” Companies that fine‑tune or deploy AI will need a complete inventory and risk‑management plans.
