AI is already part of how many businesses work, even if they don't necessarily think of themselves as heavy AI users. Tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, Gemini and Canva are now used extensively for everyday tasks. The EU AI Act introduces new responsibilities around how businesses use these technologies. For most SMEs, the key is knowing where AI is being used, what risks to look out for, and what practical steps you should be taking.
