AI literacy training. For Article 4 of the EU AI Act.
Role-based training that helps your people use AI well and safely, with records you can show, as Article 4 asks of every company that uses AI.
30 minutes with a solution architect.
What is AI literacy, and what does Article 4 require?
AI literacy is the skills, knowledge and understanding people need to use AI systems in an informed way, aware of their opportunities and risks. Since the Digital Omnibus of July 2026, Article 4 requires providers and deployers to take measures to support the AI literacy of their staff and of people using AI on their behalf, without guaranteeing a specific level. Solorai designs role-based programmes and keeps the records.

Article 4 requires providers and deployers to take measures to support the AI literacy of their staff and of people using AI on their behalf.

On 2 February 2025. The Digital Omnibus rewrote its wording with effect from 27 July 2026, but did not postpone it.
