General-Purpose AI Model (GPAI)

EU AI Act term for AI models with significant generality able to perform a wide range of tasks, such as large language models.

Definition

GPAI providers must maintain technical documentation, provide information to downstream providers, adopt a copyright compliance policy, and publish a summary of training content, with obligations applying from 2 August 2025. Models with systemic risk, presumed above 10^25 floating-point operations of training compute, face additional duties: evaluations, adversarial testing, serious incident reporting, and cybersecurity. A voluntary GPAI Code of Practice was published in July 2025.

Example

A foundation model developer publishes a training data summary using the Commission's template.

Exam tip

The 10^25 FLOPs threshold creates a presumption of systemic risk.
