What it is¶
The European Union regulation on artificial intelligence. It sets a risk-based classification with obligations for providers and deployers of high-risk systems.
Amended in 2026 by the AI Omnibus (Regulation (EU) 2026/1744): the AI literacy duty softened from "ensure" to "support" (Art 4), a new legal basis added for processing special-category data to detect and correct bias (Art 4a), and high-risk compliance dates postponed to 2 December 2027 (Annex III) and 2 August 2028 (Annex I).
Role in the record¶
- Grounds BP03: Article 25 (a substantial modification can turn a deployer into a provider; framed for high-risk systems, threshold not yet fully defined).
- Grounds BP04: Articles 14 and 26 (human oversight; deployer duties).
- Grounds BP09: Article 14 (oversight must be effective and names automation bias as a hazard).
