What this object links to

Every relation appears below as a path: from the source with its locator, through the conditions and exceptions of the object carrying the relation, to the consequence. A locator belongs to a statement in the data and not to a relation, so the source is the source anchor of the carrying object.

What this object states

Official fact

Attributable to a named primary source, with a locator. Where they differ, the official source prevails.

Article 3(11) defines putting into service as the supply of an AI system for first use directly to the deployer or for own use in the Union for its intended purpose.

Our interpretation

Our own reading. It can change without the law changing, and it is not the position of a supervisory authority.

This is the trap for organisations that build their own systems. The reasoning runs: we sell nothing, so we place nothing on the market, so provider obligations do not apply. The words or for own use close off that route. As soon as you start using a self-built system in the Union for its intended purpose, you have put it into service, and under point 3 you are a provider as well as a deployer. Note also for first use: a system still running in a test environment and not used for its intended purpose has not yet been put into service.

Recommended step

A practical step we consider appropriate. Not an obligation following from the Regulation.

Register for every internally developed AI system the date on which it went into production for its intended purpose, and note explicitly that your organisation is both provider and deployer. Tie the start of your file-building to that date, and assess immediately whether the system is high risk, because the technical documentation of Article 11 and the logging of Article 12 then apply from that moment and the file need not be reconstructed after the fact.
