Corporate counsel have warned the EU’s Artificial Intelligence Act, in force from August, may have unanticipated consequences for the tech industry
Denas Grybauskas, head of legal at Oxylabs, said: ‘One business compliance risk that is not being discussed lies in the fact the AI Act will affect not only firms that directly deal with AI technologies but the wider tech community as well.’
Grybauskas said the Act ‘lays down explicit requirements and limitations’ that target developers, users, importers, and distributors’ but might also bring indirect liability to third parties in the supply chain, such as data collection companies.
