Greenberg Traurig’s Tel Aviv office collaborated with Dr. Philip Radlanski, Local Partner in the Intellectual Property & Technology Practice Group in GT Germany, on a recent interview with Calcalist, one of Israel’s leading business publications.
In the interview, Dr. Radlanski provides timely and practical guidance on how the European Union’s Artificial Intelligence Act affects Israeli startups and tech companies- particularly those working with clients in the EU or deploying general-purpose AI tools. He explains that the regulation defines “AI systems” broadly, covering not only purpose-built AI platforms but also general-use tools.
For Israeli companies, the implications are significant. Even passive users of AI must meet transparency requirements, and those modifying or developing AI systems may fall under stricter obligations. Dr. Radlanski outlines key steps companies should take now to evaluate their current use of AI, classify systems based on risk, and prepare for compliance- especially as European clients begin requesting documentation and assurances.
His insights reflect Greenberg Traurig’s ongoing commitment to helping clients stay ahead of complex regulatory developments at the intersection of law and innovation.
