Where a [general-purpose AI model](https://headlesslaw.com/definitions/ai-act/general-purpose-ai-model/) meets the condition referred to in [Article 51(1)](/mica.wtf/ai-act/chapter-v-general-purpose-ai-models-art.-51-56/51.md), point (a), the relevant [provider](https://headlesslaw.com/definitions/ai-act/provider/) shall notify the Commission without delay and in any event within two weeks after that requirement is met or it becomes known that it will be met. That notification shall include the information necessary to demonstrate that the relevant requirement has been met. If the Commission becomes aware of a general-purpose AI model presenting systemic risks of which it has not been notified, it may decide to designate it as a model with [systemic risk](https://headlesslaw.com/definitions/ai-act/systemic-risk/). 2. The provider of a general-purpose AI model that meets the condition referred to in [Article 51(1)](/mica.wtf/ai-act/chapter-v-general-purpose-ai-models-art.-51-56/51.md), point (a), may present, with its notification, sufficiently substantiated arguments to demonstrate that, exceptionally, although it meets that requirement, the general-purpose AI model does not present, due to its specific characteristics, systemic risks and therefore should not be classified as a general-purpose AI model with systemic risk. 3. Where the Commission concludes that the arguments submitted pursuant to paragraph 2 are not sufficiently substantiated and the relevant provider was not able to demonstrate that the general-purpose AI model does not present, due to its specific characteristics, systemic risks, it shall reject those arguments, and the general-purpose AI model shall be considered to be a general-purpose AI model with systemic risk. 4. The Commission may designate a general-purpose AI model as presenting systemic risks, ex officio or following a qualified alert from the scientific panel pursuant to [Article 90(1)](/mica.wtf/ai-act/chapter-ix-post-market-monitoring-information-sharing-and-market-surveillance-art.-72-94/90.md), point (a), on the basis of criteria set out in Annex XIII. The Commission is empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with [Article 97](/mica.wtf/ai-act/chapter-xi-delegation-of-power-and-committee-procedure-art.-97-98/97.md) in order to amend Annex XIII by specifying and updating the criteria set out in that Annex. 5. Upon a reasoned request of a provider whose model has been designated as a general-purpose AI model with systemic risk pursuant to paragraph 4, the Commission shall take the request into account and may decide to reassess whether the general-purpose AI model can still be considered to present systemic risks on the basis of the criteria set out in Annex XIII. Such a request shall contain objective, detailed and new reasons that have arisen since the designation decision. Providers may request reassessment at the earliest six months after the designation decision. Where the Commission, following its reassessment, decides to maintain the designation as a general-purpose AI model with systemic risk, providers may request reassessment at the earliest six months after that decision. 6. The Commission shall ensure that a list of general-purpose AI models with systemic risk is published and shall keep that list up to date, without prejudice to the need to observe and protect intellectual property rights and confidential business information or trade secrets in accordance with Union and national law. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://www.mica.wtf/mica.wtf/ai-act/chapter-v-general-purpose-ai-models-art.-51-56/52.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
