The EU formally cleared its Code of Practice on AI-Generated Content transparency, triggering mandatory enforcement on August 2, 2026 for all AI providers/deployers serving EU users. Companies must embed machine-readable markers in AI-generated content and disclose AI interaction points; signing the voluntary Code by July 22 provides regulatory safe harbor.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Generative AI.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

If you make anything with generative AI for EU users, you have until 2 August to stamp every output with a machine-readable marker. Sign the voluntary code by 22 July and you get legal cover plus a head start on the rivals who leave it late.
