What is the EDPB asking about AI agents?

They're demanding session-level docs on personal data processed, legal basis, and protections in AI agent runs under GDPR Articles 12-14.

When does full EU AI Act enforcement start?

August 2, 2026, with high fines for undocumented high-risk systems like enterprise agents.
