Enterprise tiers are outside the policy — but your employees' personal accounts aren't. The identity layer of AI access just arrived, and it collides with GDPR head-on.
- [The AI Act Doesn't Define AI Agents.](https://www.onabout.ai/p/the-ai-act-doesn-t-define-ai-agents): Autonomous agents are the deployment story of 2026.

- [Voluntary Review vs. Mandatory Transparency. You Need Both.](https://www.onabout.ai/p/voluntary-review-vs-mandatory-transparency-you-need-both): On June 2, the White House signed a voluntary AI framework. On June 3, the EU's mandatory transparency consultation closed. The split is official. Here is how to build for both.
- [The Agent Governance Stack Just Crystallised.](https://www.onabout.ai/p/the-agent-governance-stack-just-crystallised): Google, Microsoft, Palo Alto, Anthropic, ServiceNow, IBM, Ping Identity, Camunda, and NVIDIA are converging on the same architecture. Here is the map.

Your Teams Aren't Ready.](https://www.onabout.ai/p/article-10-is-the-ai-act-s-gdpr-clause-your-teams-aren-t-ready): The data governance requirements in Article 10 don't replace GDPR — they stack on top of it. Here's the mapping that survives an EDPB review.
- [Build Your Own EU AI Act Knowledge Base in a Weekend (No Vector DB Required)](https://www.onabout.ai/p/build-your-own-eu-ai-act-knowledge-base-in-a-weekend-no-vector-db-required): Three folders, one index file, zero embeddings — the Karpathy-style architecture that turns Claude into a compliance assistant your auditors will actually trust.

The Question Is Whether Security Knows.](https://www.onabout.ai/p/your-developers-are-already-vibe-coding-the-question-is-whether-security-knows): Last week, Britain's National Cyber Security Centre did something unusual for a government security agency. It told the industry to stop fighting vibe coding and start governing it. NCSC CEO Richard Horne, speaking at RSAC, called AI-generated code "a huge opportunity" — then spent the rest of his keynote explaining exactly how it could go wrong.
