General-Purpose AI (GPAI)

General-Purpose AI

The EU AI Act's term for AI models that can perform a wide variety of tasks, including tasks they weren't specifically designed for. GPAI providers must maintain technical documentation, comply with EU copyright law, and publish training data summaries. Models with "systemic risk" (currently defined by a compute threshold of 10^25 FLOPs) face additional requirements including adversarial testing and incident reporting.
