Frequently Asked Questions
Is this legal advice?
No. This is an educational tool based on the EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689). For binding classification, consult a qualified lawyer. The Act entered into force August 2024; prohibitions apply February 2025; high-risk rules August 2026.
What are the 4 risk tiers?
Prohibited (Art. 5): banned outright. High-risk (Annex III): strict requirements (risk management, data governance, logging, human oversight, transparency). Limited (Art. 50): transparency obligations (must disclose AI use). Minimal: no specific obligations.
What is GPAI?
General-Purpose AI models — foundation models like GPT-4, Claude, Gemini. Additional obligations for providers: documentation, copyright policy, training data summary. "Systemic risk" threshold: training compute ≥ 10²⁵ FLOPs.
What are the fines?
Up to €35M or 7% of global annual turnover (whichever higher) for prohibited-system violations. €15M / 3% for most other violations. €7.5M / 1% for misleading information.
Who is considered a Provider vs Deployer?
Provider: develops an AI system and places it on the market. Deployer (formerly "user"): uses an AI system in a professional context. Most obligations fall on providers, but deployers of high-risk systems also have duties.
