AI literacy (EU AI Act Article 4)
AI literacy helps people assess whether using AI is a good or bad idea and how to apply it correctly. As of 2 February 2025, every organisation in the EU should take measures to support the development of sufficient AI literacy among their employees, end-users, and anyone else affected by their use of AI systems.
