The EU AI Act becomes the first formal regulatory framework for artificial intelligence

The EU AI Act enforces bans on high-risk AI systems and sets risk-based obligations and transparency rules for providers, especially for generative AI, gradually taking full effect from February 2025 onward.

The EU AI Act, adoption is now being gradually enforced, marking a significant shift in global AI regulation. As of February 2025, bans on “unacceptable risk” AI systems, such as social scoring are already in effect.

The Act introduces a risk-based framework, placing clear obligations on AI providers and users depending on the application’s risk level (unacceptable, high, limited, or minimal). It also mandates transparency requirements for generative AI, including disclosure of AI-generated content and training data summaries.

This law aims to ensure AI is developed and used responsibly across the EU, with global implications for compliance.
