Record of the decision on a code of practice
Per model: the decision whether or not to adhere to a code of practice, the version and chapter it relates to, the date and the authorised signatory, whether adherence was limited under paragraph 7 to the obligations in Article 53, and, where the decision is negative, the elaboration of your own for the issues in paragraph 2.
The official source remains authoritative. This is general information about obligations and not legal advice. See this object on the map

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.

- Condition | any ofArises for the provider of a general-purpose AI model: it may be invited under paragraph 3 to participate in the drawing up of a code of practice, and under paragraph 7 to adhere to a code of practice.
- Condition | any ofArises for other stakeholders: paragraph 3 names civil society organisations, industry, academia and other relevant stakeholders, such as downstream providers and independent experts, that may support the process.
- ExceptionParagraph 7 provides that for providers of general-purpose AI models not presenting systemic risks this adherence may be limited to the obligations provided for in Article 53, unless they declare explicitly their interest to join the full code. A provider without a systemic-risk model therefore does not have to sign up to the systemic-risk part in order to rely on the code.
- ExceptionArticle 56 does not impose a separate obligation on the provider. Paragraphs 3 and 7 speak of inviting, not of requiring, and the obligations themselves remain those of Articles 53 and 55. Not signing is therefore not an infringement of Article 56.
As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.
