Transparency obligations

Obblighi di trasparenza

Transparency obligations are the disclosure duties that the European AI regulation imposes so that people know when they are interacting with an AI system or artificially generated content. In practice, someone using a chatbot must be told they are not talking to a human; synthetic content such as AI-produced images, audio and video must be suitably marked; and emotion-recognition or biometric-categorisation systems must disclose their presence to exposed individuals. These obligations vary by type of system and its risk level.

Definition

The aim is to protect trust and people's ability to navigate an environment increasingly filled with artificial content and interactions. Transparency enables informed choices, reduces the risk of deception and connects to technical tools such as provenance credentials, which make the origin of content verifiable.
