Risk Levels of the AI Act
The AI Act categorizes AI systems into four risk levels: unacceptable risk (banned), high risk (strictly regulated), limited risk (transparency obligations), and minimal risk (unregulated). High-risk systems require conformity assessments, while manipulative or surveillance systems are banned from 2025.
