Article 50 Disclosure Notices: Exact Wording for Chatbots, AI Marketing, and AI in Hiring

Updated 19 May 2026. Article 50 disclosure obligations remain on schedule; high-risk Annex III is now 2 December 2027. Read what changed.

Article 50 of the EU AI Act requires disclosure when AI interacts with people or creates content that could be mistaken for human-made. The principle is simple — tell people. The execution is fiddly. Here is a tested library you can paste into your interfaces today.

Customer-facing chatbot

First-message: 'Hi! I'm an AI assistant working for [COMPANY NAME]. I can help with questions about [SCOPE]. For anything I can't handle, I'll pass you to a human teammate.'

Persistent label: 'AI assistant • Human handoff available'

AI in hiring

Job ad: 'AI in our hiring process: We use AI tools to help screen applications. Every application is also reviewed by a human before any rejection or shortlist decision.'

AI-generated marketing content

Social media: caption ending '[AI-generated image]' or alt-text 'AI-generated visual depicting [DESCRIPTION]'.

Blog post: 'This article was drafted with AI assistance and edited by [AUTHOR].'

AI-voiced audio: 'The voice you're hearing is AI-generated. The script was written by [AUTHOR].'

AI meeting transcription

Calendar invite: 'Please note: we use AI tools to take notes and summarise this meeting. If you'd prefer not to be transcribed, please let us know in advance.'
