Question 1

Does the EU AI Act apply to my company?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you use any AI-powered tools such as ChatGPT, Copilot, AI features in your CRM, HR tools, or any other software with AI capabilities, you are a 'deployer' under the Act and Article 4 applies. This covers the vast majority of modern businesses.

Question 2

What happens if we don't comply with the EU AI Act?

Accepted Answer

While Article 4 has no direct fine, non-compliance creates civil liability and is treated as an aggravating factor in any enforcement action under the broader AI Act. Fines under the Act can reach EUR 35 million or 7% of global annual turnover, whichever is higher.

Question 3

Do we need certified training for EU AI Act compliance?

Accepted Answer

No. The regulation does not require training from a certified body. What matters is that training is reasonable, documented, and aligned with Article 4 requirements.

Question 4

How long does EU AI Act compliance take?

Accepted Answer

Most companies get compliant quickly. The initial assessment takes just 2 minutes. The full training and documentation package is typically delivered within a few weeks.

Question 5

What if we've already done some AI training?

Accepted Answer

We'll audit what you have, identify gaps, and only fill what's missing. You won't pay for what you don't need.

Question 6

What is Article 4 of the EU AI Act?

This has been legally binding since February 2, 2025, with enforcement beginning August 2, 2026.

Question 7

Who needs to comply with EU AI Act Article 4?
