The European AI Act

With the rapid rise of artificial intelligence, an increasing number of companies are automating workflows using tools like ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot.

To promote safe and responsible AI usage, the European Union introduced the EU AI Act in 2024. This legislation provides a legal framework to ensure AI applications are developed and used in a socially responsible way.  

This regulation fosters innovation, boosts efficiency, and encourages ongoing advancements in AI, all while emphasizing ethical use. Discover what the EU AI Act means for businesses today.
