AI Literacy - Questions & Answers

PublishedEuropean Commission, DG CONNECT27 Jul 2026

Official Q&A with approximately forty questions on Article 4, originally published in May 2025 and last updated on 27 July 2026, the day the Digital Omnibus on AI entered into force. The Commission confirms that providers and deployers must take measures to promote the AI literacy of their personnel and of others who work with AI on their behalf, tailored to knowledge, experience, training and use context. The requirement for a 'sufficient' level has been removed: it has become a duty to take measures, without obligation to measure or guarantee knowledge levels, and the provision has not expired. Merely referring to the user manual is generally not sufficient. For deployers of high-risk AI systems, the requirement for training in human oversight remains. The page also describes the strengthened role of the Commission and Member States and mentions supervision and enforcement from 3 August 2026.

What this means for you

Article 4 is the obligation that has been running since February 2025 and which a Dutch organisation can be called to account on most readily, so the Commission's guidance is decisive here over interpretations by training providers.
