What is Systemic risk (AI Act)?

Also called: GPAI with systemic risk

In the EU AI Act, systemic risk means the particular danger very capable AI models can pose to society, safety or fundamental rights.

Example

A very large model that could help with cyberattacks falls under stricter obligations.

For pros

Under Art. 51, a GPAI model qualifies if it has high-impact capabilities; this is presumed above 10^25 floating-point operations (FLOP) of training compute, or the Commission designates it. Providers must then, among other things, assess risks, run adversarial tests, report serious incidents and ensure cybersecurity (Art. 55).
