Inhalt

The EU’s concern about AI has accelerated in the last few years: its 2019 AI ethics guidelines, a 2021 proposed AI Act, and, in 2023, MEPs voting to regulate AI by year end 2023, drawing on the act.

Anticipating the regulations, we discuss the AI Act’s impact on the technical communication industry: the act’s emphasis on transparency of AI implementation and development, and the need for clear, stakeholder-relevant technical communication.

Das lernen Sie

  • When documenting AI, consider the EU AI Act’s risk-based approach.
