EU Commission posts a meme to announce AI transparency rules
The image shows an EU Commission social post that says AI-generated content is now more transparent and explains the new labeling rules. The punchline is a meme format: “It’s AI generated” / “Thank you,” used to emphasize that users should no longer have to guess whether content is synthetic.
The actual policy points repeated in the post are the same as the AI Act guidance: machine-readable marks for AI content, visible labeling for deepfakes and AI text on public-interest topics, bot disclosure, and notice when AI is analyzing users.
