The EU AI Act enters into force on Thursday and will apply to any artificial intelligence (AI) systems already in place or in development. The act is widely considered to be the first legislation in the world that attempts to regulate AI based on the risks it poses.

The August 1 date sets off a series of dates and timelines over the months and years ahead to prepare companies that use AI in any capacity to get familiar with the...

Ongoing investigations into online tech platforms under the Digital Services Act (DSA) should be wrapped up within months, rather than years, the European Commission’s tech envoy in San Francisco, Gerard de Graaf, told Euronews.
