From August 2026 companies must disclose AI chatbots — fines up to €15 million

From 2 August 2026, Article 50 of the EU AI Act will require companies to clearly disclose when users are interacting with an artificial intelligence system rather than a human. Hidden AI-generated content will also be banned. Fines for non-compliance can reach €15 million. The rules are designed to end the practice of bots posing as human customer service agents.

Will mandatory AI disclosure in chatbot interactions improve consumer trust?

Titus Welliver's "The Westies" tops MGM+ charts after just 2 episodes

New crime drama "The Westies," starring Titus Welliver and Oscar-winner J.K. Simmons, debuted on MGM+ on July 12 and quickly topped the platform's viewership charts after just two episodes. The show follows two men on opposite sides of the law and draws comparisons to Scorsese's "The Departed" and HBO's "The Sopranos." In a quirky coincidence, Scorsese's "The Departed" also ranked among MGM+'s most-watched titles the same weekend.

Can "The Westies" match the popularity of "The Sopranos"?

Niels van Roij Design's Ferrari: a hand-built wagon that blurs art and car

Dutch coachbuilder Niels van Roij Design has created a unique hand-built Ferrari shooting brake that blends traditional coachbuilding craft with modern Ferrari underpinnings. The design's dark, organic and unsettling aesthetic draws a comparison to the late Polish artist Zdzisław Beksiński. The one-off creation stands as a counterpoint to mass-production uniformity in today's automotive industry.

Do hand-built coachbuilt cars still have a future in the automotive world?

The Spaghett is a three-ingredient cocktail made with Aperol, beer and a lemon slice — no mixing, no special tools required. It tastes like a laid-back version of an Aperol Spritz, lighter and more casual. Simply pour Aperol into a cold beer, add a citrus garnish and it's ready to serve.

Is the Spaghett a better summer drink than a classic Aperol Spritz?
