The rules governing general-purpose AI models under the AI Act will come into application in August 2025. The Code of Practice aims to facilitate the proper implementation of these rules and will play a crucial role in guiding the future development and deployment of trustworthy and safe general-purpose AI models in the EU. Therefore, the code will be relevant for stakeholders engaged in this field.
Key aspects of the Code include details on transparency and enforcement of copyright-related rules for providers of general-purpose AI model, as well as a taxonomy of systemic risks, risk assessment methodologies, and mitigation measures for providers of advanced general-purpose AI models which may pose systemic risks.
The draft was prepared by independent experts appointed by the AI Office. This first draft is based on the contributions from a multi-stakeholder consultation organised by the AI Office, as well as a dedicated workshop that brought together providers of general-purpose AI models.
More information on the upcoming code of practice can be found on the dedicated Commission website and Q&A overview.

The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022, aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.
The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
