- High risk, where a full conformity assessment and a complete risk-management system must be finished before deployment.Plausible but wrong: a simple disclosure chatbot is not subject to high-risk obligations.
- Unacceptable risk, where the practice is prohibited outright and may not be placed on the Union market at all.Plausible but wrong: an ordinary chatbot is not a prohibited practice.
- Minimal risk, where no obligations apply, including no duty to disclose that users interact with an AI.Almost right but wrong: minimal risk carries no duties, but the disclosure duty places this in the limited tier.
- Limited risk, where transparency duties such as disclosing AI interaction are the primary obligation that is imposed. ✓Correct: systems like chatbots carry limited-risk transparency obligations under Article 50.
The trap
Conflating limited risk (transparency duties apply) with minimal risk (no obligations at all). How to remember it
