The AI Act applies to you if:

- You provide AI systems used in the EU (regardless of where you’re based)

- You import or distribute AI systems in the EU

- You use AI systems in your business operations in the EU

In other words: if your AI touches the EU market in any way, you’re covered. Anytime an EU user consumes your product, you’re accountable.

As far as I'm aware that's currently just a blog post from the Kiwi Farms lawyer, not a bill.

Same with Thailand's lese majeste laws. Better hope nobody on your site writes "Vajiralongkorn the King of Thailand is an impotent jerkface."
