What this page is16 rows held · newest sealed read 2026-09-08
- Every one of the 6 clauses on this page names who its own words reach and who they do not reach. The second half is the part most pages leave off.
- The 10 quoted passages below are the publisher's words, not a paraphrase, and each one links to the page it came from.
- 10 of those passages were checked back against the source on 2026-09-08; the rest say why they were not.
- No sentence on this page says what your organisation must do. It says what the rule says.
Real rows out of our sealed copies
These are the clauses themselves. The table under them is the exact words we quote, so you can read the rule rather than our summary of it.
| Rule and clause | What it asks for | Who its own words reach | Who they do not reach | From when |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EU AI Act, Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, Article 50(1) Article 50(1) Read it at the source | Tell the person they are dealing with an AI system | Providers of AI systems that interact directly with people — the Commission names chatbots, AI agents and avatars — wherever they are established, if the system is placed on the EU market, put into service in the EU, or its output is used in the EU. | It does not reach a system that runs only in the background, only machine to machine, or with no direct contact with people; and it does not reach a case where it is obvious to a reasonably well-informed person that they are dealing with an AI. | 2 August 2026 |
| EU AI Act, Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, Article 50(1) Article 50(1), timing Read it at the source | Show the notice from the start of the first interaction | The same providers as Article 50(1). The Commission says the notice comes at the start of the first interaction, clearly and distinguishably, and in line with accessibility requirements. | It does not reach a system whose AI nature is obvious, and it is not satisfied by a line buried in terms of service or a privacy policy. | 2 August 2026 |
| EU AI Act, Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, Article 50(2) Article 50(2) Read it at the source | Mark generative AI output so a machine can detect it | Providers of generative AI systems: the outputs carry effective, reliable, robust and interoperable machine-readable marks. | It does not reach a deployer who only uses somebody else's system — this paragraph is written at the provider — and a visible sentence on the page is not a machine-readable mark. | 2 August 2026 |
| EU AI Act, Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, Article 50(2) Article 50(2), grace period Read it at the source | The one grace period, and the date it ends | Systems placed on the market before 2 August 2026, and only for the marking and detection duty: those comply from 2 December 2026. | It does not extend to any other Article 50 duty, and content generated before 2 August 2026 does not have to be labelled retroactively. | 2 December 2026 |
| EU AI Act, Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, Article 50(3) Article 50(3) Read it at the source | Tell people when emotion recognition or biometric categorisation is used | Deployers of emotion recognition or biometric categorisation systems: they inform the people exposed to the system. | It does not reach a person using such a system in a personal, non-professional capacity, and it is a deployer duty, not a provider one. | 2 August 2026 |
| EU AI Act, Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, Article 50(4) Article 50(4) Read it at the source | Label deepfakes, and AI text published on matters of public interest | Deployers who generate or manipulate image, audio or video that is a deepfake, and those who publish AI-generated or manipulated text on matters of public interest without human review or editorial control. The label reaches the person on first exposure at the latest. | The Commission says AI generation or manipulation that does not make content falsely appear authentic or truthful — background scenes, special effects, standard pre- and post-processing — is not likely to be caught; and published text that did go through human review or editorial control is outside the text half. | 2 August 2026 |
| Quoted for | The exact words | Source | Checked? |

What this page cannot tell you
- This is a reading of published rule text, not advice. Whether any of it reaches a particular company depends on facts this page does not have.
- Rules change and courts read them. The date beside each clause is the date the publisher names, not a promise about tomorrow.
- We re-read the sources about every 90 days. If more than 180 days have passed since the date at the top, treat this page as stale and open the source links yourself.
- Not affiliated with the European Commission, the California Legislative Counsel, the Colorado General Assembly, the Utah Legislature, the Maine Office of the Revisor of Statutes or the New York State Senate. Not legal, tax or professional advice. Rule text quoted from those publishers' own pages as of 2026-09-08.
See the file before you pay

- Open the 25 rows as a CSVA plain spreadsheet file. It saves to your machine rather than painting itself into a browser tab, and it opens in Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets.
- The same 25 rows as JSONThe same rows again, laid out for reading with code.
