What records does the EU AI Act require for high-risk AI?
The EU AI Act requires high-risk AI systems to automatically record events (logs) over their lifetime (Article 12), requires providers to keep those logs for at least six months (Article 19), and requires deployers to keep the logs under their control for at least six months (Article 26). sebbi.pro records every decision automatically, seals it so it cannot be altered, and keeps it provable long after six months through Bitcoin anchoring.
How it works
- Article 12: logs must allow events relevant to risk, post-market monitoring and operational monitoring to be recorded automatically.
- Article 19 and Article 26(6): automatically generated logs kept for at least six months, longer where other law requires.
- Article 14: human oversight, so a person can understand, override or stop the system. sebbi.pro's CHALLENGE verdict routes a decision to a human.
- Article 86: people affected by certain high-risk decisions can ask for an explanation, which needs a record of what was decided and why.
