What counts as GPAI, and what you must do
General-purpose AI models carry their own obligations — here's who is a GPAI model provider and what applies.
Updated 26 June 2026
A general-purpose AI (GPAI) model is one that can perform a wide range of tasks and be integrated into many systems.
- If you train or place a GPAI model on the market, you are a GPAI model provider (Art. 53): keep technical documentation, a copyright policy, and a training-data summary.
- If the model carries systemic risk (Art. 55), additional duties apply (model evaluations, incident reporting, cybersecurity).
- If you merely use a third-party model (e.g. ChatGPT), you are a deployer of the downstream system — the model provider's GPAI duties are theirs, not yours.
Veritome distinguishes "uses GPAI" from "is a GPAI model provider" during registration so you only get the duties that are actually yours.
