The AI Act is an all-encompassing regulation defining the usage of AI systems within the European Union. Any cmpany that deploys or brings to market a 'high-risk' AI system must ensure compliance withthe EU AI Act.
With an expected enforcement period beginning soon, businesses need to act swiftly. A grace period, typically 12 to 24 months, is likely to be given for implementation of the AI Act.
