EU AI Act

Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 on artificial intelligence

Updated

The EU AI Act is the regulation, in force since August 2024, that classifies AI systems by risk and sets obligations by class, with most of its rules applying from August 2026 and 2027.

AI that is a medical device under the MDR is automatically high-risk, so health AI carries both sets of obligations.
