What the statute requires, section by section

Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 June 2024 (the "AI Act"), Article 50, Transparency obligations for providers and deployers of certain AI systems. Article 50 applies from 2 August 2026. Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, the Digital Omnibus on AI, entered into force on 27 July 2026. Read in the enacting terms, it amends the application table in Article 113 to defer Chapter III, Sections 1, 2 and 3 to 2 December 2027 for Annex III high-risk systems and 2 August 2028 for Annex I high-risk systems. It does not move the Article 50 date. Article 50 sits in Chapter IV, and Chapter IV is not mentioned in the amending Regulation at all. It does, however, add a new Article 111(4): providers of systems generating synthetic audio, image, video or text content that were placed on the market before 2 August 2026 have until 2 December 2026 to comply with Article 50(2). It also replaces Article 50(7), the codes of practice provision. Subclauses addressed by this mapper:

Article 50(1): Providers of AI systems intended to interact directly with natural persons shall ensure that the natural persons concerned are informed that they are interacting with an AI system.
Article 50(2): Providers of AI systems generating synthetic audio, image, video or text content shall ensure that the outputs are marked in a machine-readable format and detectable as artificially generated or manipulated.
Article 50(4): Deployers of an AI system that generates or manipulates text published with the purpose of informing the public on matters of public interest shall disclose that the text has been artificially generated or manipulated, unless the content has undergone human review or editorial control meeting the stated criteria.
Article 50(5): The information referred to shall be provided to the natural persons concerned in a clear and distinguishable manner at the latest at the time of the first interaction or exposure.
