High-risk (sectoral) AI use

AI uses in regulated sectors posing significant risks.

Definition

AI applications identified as high-risk based on their deployment in specific regulated sectors (e.g., health, transport, justice) and the magnitude of potential harm, and which therefore require mandatory risk assessments, specific safeguards and conformity procedures prior to deployment.
