The EU AI Act’s transparency rules: A practical guide to Article 50

Summary

Article 50 of the EU AI Act sets transparency obligations for providers and deployers of AI systems in four situations: direct interaction with people, synthetic content generation, emotion recognition or biometric categorisation, and deepfakes or public-interest text. The obligations apply to any AI system in those situations, not only high-risk systems, and to open-source systems, from 2 August 2026.
