Transparency duties and Article 50 basics

Recognise common transparency situations.

Learn

Article 50 contains transparency obligations for specified AI interactions and synthetic or manipulated content. The duty depends on the role and the relevant scenario.

For conversational AI, the core practical idea is that people should know when they are interacting directly with AI where the provision applies.

Transparency duties are distinct from high-risk classification: a system can trigger a transparency duty without being high-risk.

Remember
  • •Transparency is its own analysis.
  • •Make required AI involvement clear at the right time.
  • •Do not bury meaningful disclosure in unread terms.
Client practice

Review a customer-service chatbot opening message and rewrite it so the AI nature is clear in plain language.
