Prepare for change in the supply chain

The assistant may later be adapted for insurance pricing.

The vendor has signed a voluntary code.

Before you read / Think it through

In “Prepare for change in the supply chain”, what would you check or do first?

Pause and form your answer, then compare the reasoning. This reflection is not scored.

Compare the reasoning

Treat that as relevant evidence, not automatic proof that your system meets every duty.

The ideas below give you a method for this decision. Then work through the rest of this case and try the decisions yourself.

Systemic-risk classification

Article 51 uses capability and impact criteria.

The training-compute presumption is above 10^25 FLOP, subject to the legal process.

In the workplace

Distinguish the statutory systemic-risk threshold from indicative guidance about identifying GPAI models. Compute is not the only possible route.

Remember this

Commission designation can also matter.

The workplace case

YOUR CASE / GENERAL-PURPOSE AI IN THE SUPPLY CHAIN

A product team is choosing a model for a branded customer-service assistant that may later be adapted for insurance pricing. One vendor has signed the GPAI Code of Practice, another releases weights openly, and a third offers little documentation but promises the highest benchmark score.

Quick reference / five key ideas

Systemic-risk classification: Commission designation can also matter.
Systemic-risk duties: Ask how the evidence supports the intended integration.
The Code of Practice: A signature is not EU certification of every product.
Modification and role changes: Reassess new high-risk purposes before release.
Supplier change and exit: Revalidate integrations when relevant capabilities change.
