In forceEUProducts and liabilityRegulation (EU) 2023/988

What it means for AI

When assessing safety, the evolving, learning and predictive functions of a product must be taken into account — relevant for consumer products with AI.

What you must do

  • Risk assessment, technical documentation, traceability and a contact point in the EU.
  • Online sellers: product information and safety warnings on the listing.

Examples

Safety for children must be assessed, including what the chatbot may say — and the AI Act adds transparency.
