# EU AI Act Content Disclosure (Article 50)

> **DISCLAIMER**: Guidance only. Verify with legal counsel for your specific use case.

## When to Use

- Publishing AI-generated content (text, images, audio, video)
- Deploying chatbots or conversational AI in the EU market
- Distributing synthetic media (deepfakes, voice clones)
- Adding AI disclosure to existing products
- Marking AI-generated music, podcasts, or video content

## Disclosure Templates by Content Type

### Chatbot / Conversational AI
Place before first user interaction:
```
This service uses artificial intelligence. You are interacting with an
AI assistant, not a human. Responses are generated automatically and
may contain errors.
```

### AI-Generated Text (Articles, Reports)
Place at the beginning or end of the content:
```
This content was created with the assistance of artificial intelligence.
```

### AI-Generated Images
Visible watermark or caption:
```
Image generated by AI
```
Metadata (EXIF/XMP):
```xml
<xmp:AIGenerated>true</xmp:AIGenerated>
<xmp:AIModel>model-name</xmp:AIModel>
<xmp:AIGenerationDate>2026-04-22</xmp:AIGenerationDate>
```

### AI-Generated Audio (Music, Voice, Podcasts)
ID3 tags (MP3/FLAC):
```
TXXX:AI-Generated=true
TXXX:AI-Model=model-name
TXXX:AI-Generation-Date=2026-04-22
```
Visible on distribution platforms:
```
Generated by AI (EU AI Act Art. 50)
```

### Synthetic Voice
Before or during audio playback:
```
This voice is generated by artificial intelligence.
```

### Deepfake / Synthetic Video
Prominent, visible marking:
```
⚠️ This video content was generated or manipulated by AI (EU AI Act Art. 50)
```

## Implementation Checklist

1. [ ] UI disclosure before first AI interaction (chatbots)
2. [ ] Metadata tags on all AI-generated files (EXIF, XMP, ID3)
3. [ ] Visible marking on published content
4. [ ] API response headers for AI-generated content: `X-AI-Generated: true`
5. [ ] Distribution platform descriptions updated
6. [ ] Internal documentation of AI systems used
7. [ ] Process for handling mixed human+AI content

## Exceptions (No Disclosure Required)

- AI used only for internal development (not user-facing)
- AI used as a tool but human substantially edits the output
- Law enforcement exceptions (specific conditions in AI Act)
- Artistic expression exceptions (limited, case-by-case)

## Penalties for Non-Disclosure

Up to EUR 15M or 3% of global annual turnover (whichever is higher).

## What This Skill Does NOT Do

- Does not implement watermarking algorithms
- Does not modify media files (provides templates and metadata specs)
- Does not determine if content qualifies as "AI-generated" (legal determination)
- Does not cover copyright of AI-generated content (separate issue)
