Article 25 · Chapter III: High-Risk AI Systems

Responsibilities Along the AI Value Chain

High risk

Summary

Distributors, importers, deployers or other third parties become 'providers' of a high-risk AI system — and inherit all provider obligations — when they put their name on a system, substantially modify it, or change its intended purpose so that it becomes high-risk. Original providers must cooperate with downstream actors and provide necessary information and assistance.

Key obligations

  • Become 'provider' (and inherit obligations) on substantial modification, rebranding, or use-change
  • Original providers must cooperate with downstream modifiers
  • Document who is provider for each version
