About Learn AI

Last reviewed 28 October 2026

Learn AI explains how modern AI works, and where it meets the law, for lawyers who need to use it, advise on it and spot where it goes wrong. It is written for intelligent readers with little time and a healthy scepticism of hype, and it is open to every reader who wants the same grounding. Each technical idea is explained in plain words with diagrams and short animations, and each legal statement links to the statute, judgment or regulator’s guidance it rests on, with the date it was last checked. The site is free to read, without advertising or sign-ups, and every page shows when it was last reviewed.

How the facts are checked

Each legal statement on the site was checked against the primary source it cites, for instance the text of the AI Act, a court’s judgment or an opinion of the European Data Protection Board, and each source in a module’s list shows the date on which that check was made. Technical facts were checked against the developers’ own publications and the research papers listed beneath each module. A page says so when a question of law is open and gives the competing readings, and a point that could not be verified is left out.

How the pages stay current

Every page shows the date it was last reviewed, and the aim is to review each page at least every six months. AI law moves quickly, so a page can describe a position that has since changed, and the review date is there to tell a reader how much weight the page can bear today.

Which law the site covers

The legal material covers the law of the European Union and the United Kingdom. The technical modules describe how AI systems work wherever they are built, and their legal angle sections apply the same two bodies of law.

Who runs it

Learn AI is an independent, non-commercial resource, free to read and published under its own name. It does not give legal advice, and the disclaimer explains how far a reader may rely on it.
