Multiple Stakeholders & Value Chains: Challenges in defining clear liabilities and coordinating across multiple partners and value chains, especially for companies that are both users and providers of AI solutions.

Readiness Gap: Only 6% of organizations have built their Responsible AI (RAI) foundations, with 69% having some dimensions and 25% yet to start.

Lack of Risk Management Frameworks: 47% of surveyed organizations have not developed a risk management framework, which is essential for responsible AI development.

Limited Risk Mitigation Implementation: Only 39% of organizations have started implementing various risk mitigation tools and techniques.

Documentation & Audit Burden: An expected increase in documentation and audit burden by 20%.

Applicable Scenarios & Impacted Roles

Risk-Based Approach: The Act categorizes AI applications based on perceived risk to health, safety, and fundamental rights:

• Level 1: Unacceptable Risk (Prohibited AI practices, e.g., social scoring, exploitative AI, real-time biometric identification in public spaces for law enforcement).
• Level 2: High Risk (e.g., AI in critical infrastructure, education, employment, law enforcement, migration, justice).
• Level 3: Limited Risk (e.g., chatbots, emotion recognition systems, deepfakes).
• Level 4: No or Minimal Risk (e.g., videogames, purchase recommendations).

Impacted Roles in AI Value Chain:

• Provider: Develops an AI system and intends to put it on the EU market.
• Deployer: Uses an AI system under its authority for professional activity.
• Distributor: Makes an AI system available on the EU market (other than provider or importer).
