Article 4 of the AI Act requires providers and deployers of AI systems to ensure a sufficient level of AI literacy to their staff and anyone using the systems on their behalf.
The article entered into application on 2 February 2025. Several organisations have anticipated and prepared themselves. The EU AI Office has gathered some of the ongoing practices among the pledgers of the AI Pact with the purpose of creating a living repository (download the PDF below) to provide examples on ongoing AI literacy practices.
The list of practices is non-exhaustive and will be updated with further practices on a regular basis. The practices so far published are divided alphabetically according to their different level of implementation (fully implemented, partially rolled-out, planned).
While replicating the practices collected in this living repository does not automatically grant presumption of compliance with Article 4, the repository aims to encourage learning and exchange among providers and deployers of AI systems. By publishing the practices, the Commission does not imply either endorsement or evaluation in any way.
The living repository is part of a broader effort of the EU AI Office to support the implementation of Article 4 of the AI Act.
