- Only a brief transparency notice telling users that the content is AI-generated.Plausible but wrong: a transparency notice alone is a limited-risk obligation; high-risk systems face a much broader set of controls.
- Risk management, data governance, technical documentation and record-keeping. ✓Correct: high-risk systems must implement risk management, data governance, technical documentation, logging/record-keeping, transparency, human oversight, and accuracy and robustness measures.
- Mandatory open-sourcing of the model's weights and its full training code.Plausible but wrong: the Act does not require open-sourcing model weights or training code for high-risk systems.
- A blanket prohibition on placing the system on the EU internal market.Plausible but wrong: high-risk systems are permitted subject to obligations; only unacceptable-risk practices are banned outright.
The trap
Mixing up high-risk obligations with the transparency-only duties of limited-risk systems or the ban on prohibited practices. How to remember it
High-risk AI systems must meet obligations including risk management, data governance, technical documentation, and record-keeping.
