EU AI Act 2026: New Rules for Training Data and Copyright

Starting in 2026, the EU AI Act will enforce strict transparency and accountability rules for AI companies in the European Union. Key changes include public disclosure of training data sources, respect for copyright opt-outs, and mandatory labelling of AI-generated content. These regulations aim to prevent misinformation, protect creators' rights, and ensure AI systems are explainable. Businesses should audit their data sources, document their processes, and prepare to label AI outputs to comply with the new rules.
