Additionally, the European Commission has come up with the second draft of the General-Purpose AI Code of Practice that includes inputs from almost 1000 stakeholders. This draft is a step-by-step guide for AI model providers in the AI Act compliance throughout the model lifecycle and it includes the issues of transparency and copyright obligations as well as systemic risk mitigation and preliminary Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
