AI Literacy: A Key Pillar of the EU AI Act and CloudNation’s Approach

In August 2024, the EU AI Act began rolling out in phases to regulate the use of artificial intelligence (AI). As of January 2025, this law requires organizations that develop, implement, or operate AI systems to ensure their teams have sufficient AI literacy. But what exactly does AI literacy mean, and how is CloudNation addressing it?

What is AI Literacy?

AI literacy is more than just technical knowledge about AI systems. It’s about having the skills and understanding needed to engage with AI in an informed way. This means employees should be able to comprehend and critically assess AI systems, including their ethical and societal impact. In a world where AI is becoming an integral part of business operations and decision-making, AI literacy is essential.
