Embrace artificial intelligence and prepare for EU AI Act compliance

The EU AI Act defines multiple levels of permissible risk for AI – high risk, limited risk, and minimal risk. High-risk AI systems pose significant risks to the fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals or whole groups thereof. If an organization's risk level is greater than “limited risk,” such as “unacceptable risk,” it must undergo a conformity assessment and/or adjust AI models accordingly to be made available as a service or used.  

In addition to defining risk levels, the EU AI Act specifies expectations of the following groups that interact with AI: 

• Providers – those who build AI systems to place them on the market.  
• Deployers – those who incorporate AI systems into their products or services 
• Users – those affected by the decisions of AI systems 

Similar to the GDPR, the AI Act has extremely broad coverage. It intends to cover the processing of personal data through 'partially or solely automated means', including any AI system.
