The European Union has adopted the EU AI Act, which effectively moves AI testing from the “optional” category into a legal obligation. Ignoring the rules can be expensive — fines of up to €35 million or 7% of a company’s global turnover.
What does this mean for business?
If you plan to bring AI products to the EU market, be ready for the law to require structured model testing processes, including:
1. Adversarial Testing & Red Teaming: serious checks for resilience against attacks and attempts to extract confidential data.
2. Bias & Fairness Audits: reducing and preventing discrimination in algorithms.
3. Vulnerability Assessments: protection against data poisoning and prompt manipulation.
4. Capability Evaluations: assessing hidden model capabilities and dual-use risks.
The winners will be those who not only know how to build AI, but also know how to make it safe, reliable, and compliant with EU requirements!
The market is only entering this phase now. That’s why it already makes sense to connect with teams and specialists who are genuinely focused on standardization, compliance approaches, and AI system testing.
On our side, we are actively studying this space, building hands-on experience, training specialists, and speaking with companies that want to navigate this transition calmly and without unnecessary losses.
If you work with AI and understand that legal review is only a matter of time — feel free to message me. I’d be glad to discuss the market’s real challenges and how we might be useful to each other in this new reality.
I'd pick Violet Desk. Blue is what every SaaS uses, violet stands out and still says AI, and the orange sticky notes pop more against it. Does the hero chip row under the headline work on mobile?
If your website was created before 2025, do this right now:
Navigate to your AI of choice and ask to validate your schema data.
Structured data is essential for AI engines to understand your business. If it is outdated, factually incorrect or missing you will not be cited by AI engines such as Gemini or ChatGPT.
It is not a new standard, but it has never been more important.
AI for the masses, craft for the rich. What do you think about this? 👀
Brands like Dior or Prada invest in hand drawn animation, where you can feel the time and the hands behind it. Meanwhile Coca Cola makes its Christmas campaign with AI.
When anyone can generate “perfect” in seconds, the human touch becomes the distinctive thing.
Is AI becoming the look of mass market, while craft becomes the new luxury? 🤔
