The EU AI Act's obligations for general-purpose AI (GPAI) model providers will become fully enforceable on August 2, 2026, under Regulation 2024/1689. This deadline marks the activation of enforcement powers specific to GPAI model providers. Key obligations include: publishing a sufficiently detailed summary of training data used to train models; maintaining technical documentation describing the model's capabilities and limitations; implementing cybersecurity measures; conducting model evaluations such as red teaming; completing risk assessments; and incident reporting for models deemed to pose systemic risks. The GPAI obligations originally began on August 2, 2025, with full enforcement powers taking effect nearly a year later. DEV Community reported the core details. Gosign noted additional context.
