AI Act implementation package

Three key documents were released over the summer for the implementation of the EU AI Act’s rules for providers of general-purpose AI models:

• The Code of Practice outlines voluntary measures regarding transparency, copyright and safety and security.
• These guidelines clarify the scope of the definition and obligations of providers.
• The standardised template provides a summary of training content, which will help ensure compliance and support copyright holders in exercising their rights.

Despite the extensive feedback offered by STM and other rightsholders throughout the (often untransparent) drafting process, the outcomes don’t fully reflect the concerns raised and lack ambition. STM prepared an analysis of what these documents mean for its members.
