The EU AI Act: Obligations, Roles, and Risk Classes Explained Simply

Does the AI Act apply to your business, and if so, how? Whether you’re using ChatGPT and Copilot, developing your own AI application, or importing AI systems: EU Regulation 2024/1689 sets out different obligations for each of these cases, depending on your role and the risk class of your application.

Our training module makes the regulation tangible. You’ll learn which of the five key roles (Provider, Operator, Importer, Distributor, Authorized Representative) applies to you, how the AI Act’s four risk classes work, and what that means for your daily work. Using three specific scenarios, from using common AI tools to developing high-risk systems like AI in medical imaging, you can classify your own organization and see which documentation, training, and obligations apply to you.

An overview of the EU regulation’s timeline also shows when specific requirements become relevant for you.
