ACT AI: Making sense of Europe’s Artificial Intelligence Act (English Edition) baixar epub

The European Artificial Intelligence Act runs to 113 articles, 13 annexes and 180 recitals. It is dense, technical, at times arid. And its calendar has just moved: Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, published in the Official Journal on 24 July 2026, has shifted part of the deadlines. Many companies no longer know what applies, or when.

This book answers that question, chapter by chapter.

WHAT YOU GET
Seven parts, 33 short chapters, each written to be read in ten minutes. Thirty-three infographics in the colours of Law Right. Recurring boxes: ESSENTIAL for the core, CAUTION for the traps, DEFINITION for the key notions, IN PRACTICE for what you do on Monday, BELGIUM AND FRANCE for the national specifics, LAWYER'S LEVEL for the foundations. A light closing note ends each chapter, to breathe. And an index, to find a notion in seconds.

THREE LEVELS OF READING
Every chapter reads at three depths, marked by a pastille in the margin. The busy executive finds the essentials, no jargon. The CIO, the CTO and the developer find what they need to act. The lawyer gets the exact text, article by article. Follow one depth, or all three.

THE CALENDAR, UP TO DATE
The prohibited practices have applied since 2 February 2025. AI literacy too. General-purpose models since 2 August 2025. The transparency obligations of Article 50 apply from 2 August 2026, and those were not postponed. High-risk systems under Annex III are pushed back to 2 December 2027 at the latest. Those embedded in products, to 2 August 2028. This book separates those dates instead of blurring them.

BELGIUM AND FRANCE
Who supervises, who fines, and how far the designation of authorities has actually come in both countries. A full chapter, plus a recurring box in every chapter where the national angle matters.

SEVEN SECTORS EXAMINED
Health and medical devices. Banking, credit and insurance. Employment and human resources. Public sector, justice and policing. Education. Marketing, media and content. Industry, products and transport. For each: what tips into high risk, what stays free, and what has to be done before the deadline.

A BOOK YOU CAN ALSO LISTEN TO AND WATCH
Every chapter has its audiocast and its videocast. Scan the QR code in the margin and listen in the car, or watch it in ten minutes. Thirty-three episodes, chapter by chapter.

OFFICIAL SOURCES ONLY
The book rests on the texts published in the Official Journal of the Union and on the European Commission's guidelines. They are all listed at the end, with their exact references and their links. No invented source, no approximate date.
