Classification of AI systems under the EU AI Act
The first step towards AI Act compliance: establishing which AI systems operate in the organisation, what role the organisation plays and which risk category they fall into.
What we establish
- Whether a solution is an AI system within the meaning of Article 3(1) AI Act.
- The organisation's role: provider, deployer, importer or distributor.
- Whether the system involves a prohibited practice (Article 5 AI Act).
- Whether the system is high-risk (Article 6 and Annexes I and III AI Act).
- Transparency obligations towards users and persons interacting with the system (Article 50 AI Act).
- Use of general-purpose AI models and the resulting obligations.
Outcome
The organisation receives a register of AI systems with the assigned role, risk category and list of obligations with their application dates – the basis for documentation, contracts, policies and training.
Frequently asked questions
Does a company that only uses off-the-shelf AI tools have AI Act obligations?
Yes. An organisation using an AI system in the course of its activities is a deployer. It must, among other things, take measures to ensure AI literacy of its staff and, for high-risk systems, comply with Article 26 AI Act. The scope depends on the category of the system.
What fines does the AI Act provide for?
Up to EUR 35 million or 7% of worldwide annual turnover for prohibited practices, and up to EUR 15 million or 3% for most other infringements.
