Amended by Digital Omnibus on AI 32026R1744
applies from: unchanged
The obligation on providers and deployers changed from taking measures to ensure a sufficient level of AI literacy to their best extent, to taking measures to support the development of AI literacy, and a new sentence clarifies that this does not require guaranteeing any specific level of AI literacy for any individual.
The article now numbers this obligation as paragraph 1 and adds two new paragraphs: paragraph 2, under which the Commission and Member States support and facilitate providers' and deployers' efforts, including SMEs, with the Commission publishing practical examples on the single information platform referred to in Article 62(3), point (b), and paragraph 3, under which the Board adopts recommendations, taking into account European competence frameworks, to support the promotion of AI literacy, including by setting common objectives.
