This comes in addition to the call for expression of interest to participate in the drawing-up of the first General-Purpose AI Code of Practice between September 2024 and April 2025.
The consultation is an opportunity for all stakeholders to have their say on the topics covered by the first Code of Practice, which will detail out rules for general-purpose AI model providers. The consultation will also inform related work by the AI Office, in particular on the template for the summary of the content used for the training of the general-purpose AI models and the accompanying guidance.
All interested parties are encouraged to participate. The AI Office invites submissions from a broad range of stakeholders, including academia, independent experts, industry representatives such as general-purpose AI model providers or downstream providers integrating the model into their AI systems, civil society organisations, rightsholders, and public authorities.
The consultation is available in English and responses can be submitted via this form over a period of seven weeks. Submissions must be completed by Tuesday, 10 September 2024, 18:00 CET. Early submissions are encouraged.
The questionnaire for this consultation is divided into three sections:
- General-purpose AI models: transparency and copyright-related provisions
- General-purpose AI models with systemic risk: risk taxonomy, assessment and mitigation
- Reviewing and monitoring the Codes of Practice for general-purpose AI models
At the end of the questionnaire, you have the option to upload one document to share further information with the AI Office. We provide a template which aligns with the topics covered in the Code of Practice.
Based on the submissions and answers to the targeted questions, an initial draft of the Code of Practice will be developed. The section in the Code on the summary of the model training content should take into account the template to be provided by the AI Office that will also be informed by the submissions to the multi-stakeholder consultation.
The AI Office will publish a summary of the results of the consultation. Results will be based on aggregated data and respondents will not be directly quoted.
Further information on the AI Act's regulation of general-purpose AI models, Codes of Practice, and related activities by the AI Office can be found in the background document.
