Commission publishes draft guidelines on classification of high-risk AI systems
The European Commission has published draft guidelines on the classification of artificial intelligence (AI) as high-risk systems. These guidelines aim to help providers and users assess whether a system is classified as high-risk. High-risk systems are those that could endanger health, safety, or fundamental rights.
