AI literacy is the part that is already live.

The idea

Article 4 of the EU AI Act covers AI literacy. It asks organizations that provide or use AI systems to take measures that support the development of AI literacy among the people working with those systems, matched to their roles, their background, and the context the systems are used in.

The wording changed in July 2026. The earlier text asked for a sufficient level of literacy. The current text asks for measures that support its development, judged against the situation, with no fixed bar named. The practical work did not get easier. National market surveillance authorities began supervising this on 2 August 2026, so the question in front of most organizations is what they can show.

I deliver training that meets the obligation and is genuinely useful at the same time.

This is guidance and training. For specific legal obligations, confirm with your own counsel. I will help build the right literacy program.

What moved, and what did not

Three dates are worth keeping straight.

• AI literacy, Article 4

  In application since February 2025. Supervised by national market surveillance authorities since 2 August 2026. Not deferred.

• Transparency, Article 50

  Live since 2 August 2026. People have to be told when they are dealing with an AI system, and AI-generated content published on matters of public interest has to be disclosed as such. This mostly lands on marketing, communications, and customer service.

• High-risk systems

  These moved. Stand-alone systems in Annex III now apply from 2 December 2027, and AI built into regulated products under Annex I from 2 August 2028.

The heavier engineering requirements have more runway than most people assume. The requirements that touch everyday staff are already being watched. I wrote about the detail in What the Digital Omnibus actually changed.

Who it is for

Any organization operating in the EU, or working with EU partners, that uses AI in its work. Particularly useful for HR, legal, and leadership teams who carry responsibility for getting this right.

How I help

• Get AI Ready

  The MinnaLearn program, delivered as a certified partner. A structured path to AI literacy across an organization, and a solid backbone for an Article 4 program.

• Tailored literacy training

  Sessions adapted to your sectors and roles, so the training satisfies the obligation and is genuinely useful at the same time.

• Leadership briefings

  A short, direct session for executives on what the Act asks now, what changed in 2026, and what is worth doing in the next twelve months.

• Records and role mapping

  A plain picture of which AI systems are in use, who touches them, and what training each group received. This is the part a regulator can actually look at.

• Transparency practice for content teams

  What Article 50 expects when AI has a hand in published text, images, or customer conversations, and how to build the habit into normal work.

Formats

From a single leadership briefing to an organization-wide rollout, with records suitable for demonstrating what was delivered, to whom, and when. English or Arabic via my network.

What you should expect

Staff who understand the tools they use every day, and a record that shows what was delivered, to whom, and when.
