Reassess intended purpose: What does the evidence support about risk analysis?
The evidence supports reassessing purpose, use, and role because operational repurposing can change applicable risk duties.
The question
In the European Union, an energy company bought a maintenance model marketed for predicting equipment failures. Operations now use its output to assign workers to hazardous tasks, while benchmark accuracy remains unchanged. What does the evidence support about risk analysis?

- The original marketing purpose controls despite operational repurposing.Actual deployment and changed intended purpose can affect risk analysis, so original marketing alone is insufficient.
- The purchase automatically makes the company the provider.Purchasing a tool does not automatically establish provider status; actor roles depend on context, purpose, and other conditions.
- Accuracy alone determines the applicable risk category.Unchanged accuracy does not resolve whether the actual intended purpose and use place the system in a different regulatory category.
- Reassess intended purpose, actual use, and actor role before classification. ✓EU AI Act risk and duties depend on intended purpose, use, and actor role, not unchanged benchmark accuracy alone.
The trap
Separate performance evidence from classification evidence; repurposing can matter even when model accuracy is unchanged. How to remember it
The evidence supports reassessing purpose, use, and role because operational repurposing can change applicable risk duties.
