AI makes decisions. You are responsible for them. The EU AI Act is not a technical text. It is a governance text. IT is not enough. It transforms AI into a corporate governance topic that escalates in practice to general management level.
The EU AI Act (European Artificial Intelligence Regulation, in force since 1 August 2024) establishes a compliance framework for AI systems by risk level. The most demanding obligations apply to high-risk systems.
European companies using AI systems in regulated domains (HR, credit, critical infrastructure, essential services) are potentially deploying high-risk systems, with governance obligations that escalate to general management level.
The EU AI Act does not ask you to frame AI. It makes deployers responsible for its decisions. If you use an AI system in your operations, you are probably a deployer — with supervision, documentation and control obligations that you cannot delegate to your vendor.
The EU AI Act does not ask you to sign an AI charter. It asks you to demonstrate control: through documents, logs, assessments, audits, documented responsibility chains.
The real risk for an executive is not only the fine (up to €35M or 7% of annual global turnover). It is the inability to demonstrate control during an inspection, incident or challenge. It is also personal liability engaged in certain corporate governance contexts.
