SESK: Stuff Everyone Should Know · sesk.info/ai-eu-transparency-risk
What does the EU transparency-risk tier mainly require?
People must be informed about certain AI interactions or content.
- A ban on every chatbot
- Disclosure in specified situations ✔
- Publication of all source code
Why: Certain interactive and generative systems trigger disclosure duties. For example, people should know when they are interacting directly with an AI unless that is obvious.
Huh, didn't know that: Deployers must also tell people when emotion recognition or biometric categorisation tools are used on them.
The chatbot introduced itself because transparency has good manners.
