Risk-based classification: high, medium, low
Is this legally binding?
Binding. Binding law. It applies to everyone in scope, whether or not anyone points at it.
AI systems are classified into three risk tiers. High-risk systems (affecting life, health, national security, lawful rights - e.g. healthcare, education, finance, recruitment, credit scoring, biometric surveillance) face strict controls; medium-risk systems face monitoring and transparency duties; low-risk systems face minimal oversight.
