🏷️ AI content is getting labels.
Just like energy ratings or safety certifications help you make informed choices, the same logic now applies to AI.
From 2 August 2026, the AI Act will require clear labelling in key cases:
🔹 Deepfakes
🔹 AI-generated or manipulated content
🔹 Interactions with chatbots and AI systems
You have the right to know whether what you see, hear or read has been made or altered by AI 🤖
@EUCommission “voluntary”….
How stupid do you think we are?
@voxel @EUCommission it says “providers who sign”. It’s a voluntary certification program which doesn’t even cover individuals/independent parties using gen AI on their own hardware.
Read better.
@CynAq @EUCommission Not sure if you're trolling, but if you do what I suggested you would see that: «(...) to help providers and deployers of generative artificial intelligence (AI) systems meet the AI Act transparency obligations that will apply from 2 August 2026.
From that date, the AI Act will require clear labelling in key cases. Deepfakes and AI-generated or AI-manipulated text published on matters of public interest must be clearly labelled.» (emphasis added).
@voxel @EUCommission the same question back at you. It clearly says “…who sign”. Parties don’t sign anything are not obligated to do anything because they have nothing to lose without the compliance certificate they clearly rejected to begin with.
Second, I think you understand that this has nothing to do with protecting individuals from deep fakes, plagiarism etc from other individuals not using a commercially available service but running models on their own private hardware, and only addresses commercial services and publications that have some public facing official interface.
@CynAq @EUCommission I will no longer engage in this conversation as you seemingly do not seek to engage in a meaningful discussion and reject every clarification.
For anyone else, read the legal text of the AI Act.
In particular: Art. 3 (definitions) and Art. 50 (transparency obligations)
@voxel @EUCommission I am engaging in good faith. You are rejecting to acknowledge “who” is obligated “by what enforcement mechanism”.
Read the rest of the thread. This is corporate regulation theater, no matter how hard you try to convince yourself otherwise. Good day.
