EU AI Act answers
How we write and check our answers
Drafted with AI help and checked against the official EU text before publishing.
Our sources
- EUR-Lex, the EU's official law website: the EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) and the Digital Omnibus that amended it (Regulation (EU) 2026/1744). Every quote on our answer pages comes from here.
- The European Commission's AI Office: its guidance and questions-and-answers on how the Act applies.
- National authorities: the bodies each country names to supervise the Act, such as the Bundesnetzagentur in Germany. Our country guides link to the authority's own pages.
How an answer is checked
- An answer is drafted with AI help, in plain English, for a small business.
- Before it is published, every quote is checked word for word against the official EU text, and every date and article number against the same source.
- Points about a single country are checked against that country's authority or official journal.
- Each answer shows the date it was first answered and the date it was last reviewed.
- Our answers are readiness guidance, not legal advice.
How corrections work
If you think an answer is wrong or out of date, email info@glassbots.com and name the page. We check the point against the official text. If it needs to change, we correct the answer, update its review date and record the change below.
Change log
- Added this page. Every answer now links here from its date line and shows where it sits in the Q&A (answers › topic › question).
- Updated the staff-training answer for the Digital Omnibus (Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, in force 27 July 2026), and labelled the replaced 2024 wording of Article 4 wherever it is quoted.
- Corrected the German ChatGPT and chatbot-notice answers: the duty to tell people they are talking to an AI (Article 50(1)) sits with the chatbot's provider. Reworded the lawyer question, and explained when the disclosure notice and text label are not needed.
- Moved the registration answer to /qa-register.html and the small-business guide to /eu-ai-act.html. The old guide address, /eu-ai-act-for-smes.html, redirects to the new one.
- Put the Article 50(1) notice duty on the chatbot provider in the English answers, and said that a typical small shop in Germany falls under the Bundesnetzagentur as the general rule.
- Quoted the replaced Article 4(1) AI-literacy duty on the six answers that cover staff training.
- Published the checked German answers.
- Added a note on the six AI-literacy answers that the Digital Omnibus replaced Article 4.
- Published 17 more answers, including five country guides, the banned practices and the small-business guide.
- Published the first 11 answers.
