AI Liability Directive

Definition

A proposed EU directive that would make it easier for victims of AI-caused harm to seek compensation by establishing disclosure obligations and a rebuttable presumption of causation. It complements the EU AI Act by addressing civil liability where the Act focuses on market access requirements.

EU AI Act

The world's first comprehensive AI regulation, adopted by the European Union in 2024 and phasing in through 2027–2028 (prohibitions from February 2025, GPAI obligations from August 2025, stand-alone high-risk systems from 2 December 2027, and high-risk AI embedded in regulated products from 2 August 2028). It classifies AI systems by risk level—unacceptable, high, limited, and minimal—and imposes obligations proportionate to risk, from outright bans to conformity assessments and transparency requirements.

Accountability (AI)

The principle that individuals and organisations involved in AI development and deployment can be held responsible for the outcomes their systems produce. The EU AI Act establishes clear accountability chains between providers, importers, distributors, and deployers.

Post-Market Monitoring

The ongoing collection and analysis of data about a deployed AI system's real-world performance and risk profile, required for high-risk AI systems under the EU AI Act. Providers must proactively detect and report incidents, model drift, and new risks throughout the product's lifecycle.
