It is also necessary to clarify a procedure for the classification of
a general-purpose AI model with systemic risks. A general-purpose AI model that meets
the applicable threshold for high-impact capabilities should be presumed to be
a general-purpose AI models with systemic risk. The provider should notify the AI Office at
the latest two weeks after the requirements are met or it becomes known that
a general-purpose AI model will meet the requirements that lead to the presumption. This is
especially relevant in relation to the threshold of floating point operations because training
of general-purpose AI models takes considerable planning which includes the upfront allocation
of compute resources and, therefore, providers of general-purpose AI models are able to know if
their model would meet the threshold before the training is completed. In the context of that
notification, the provider should be able to demonstrate that, because of its specific
characteristics, a general-purpose AI model exceptionally does not present systemic risks,
and that it thus should not be classified as a general-purpose AI model with systemic
risks. That information is valuable for the AI Office to anticipate the placing on the market of
general-purpose AI models with systemic risks and the providers can start to engage with the AI
Office early on. That information is especially important with regard to general-purpose AI
models that are planned to be released as open-source, given that, after the open-source model
release, necessary measures to ensure compliance with the obligations under this Regulation may
be more difficult to implement.
