TESSA: A Custom GPT Built to Guide SMEs Through the EU AI Act

A new arXiv paper describes TESSA, an educational tool built inside the OpenAI Custom GPT environment to support AI governance learning. It is aimed at small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that need to navigate the European Union Artificial Intelligence Act (EU AI Act) as generative AI adoption grows. The study follows a design-oriented approach covering the design, implementation, and evaluation of the tool. The snippet is truncated, so the specific evaluation results are not included here.

AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.

The increasing adoption of generative AI presents new opportunities while raising AI governance and regulatory challenges, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) navigating the European Union Artificial Intelligence Act (EU AI Act). To support AI governance education, this study developed...

SMEs often lack dedicated compliance staff, so a tool that explains EU AI Act obligations in an accessible format could help them understand their responsibilities. Builders of governance education and compliance tools may find the design approach useful as a reference. Readers should watch the full paper for the evaluation findings to judge how well the approach works in practice.
