Classifying a High-Risk AI System: Annex I, Annex III, and the Derogation
High-risk classification determines whether an organisation faces a substantial compliance programme or almost none. This lesson works through both routes: the Annex I product-safety route as narrowed in 2026, the eight Annex III use-case areas with the boundaries that get argued, and the Article 6(3) derogation, its conditions, and the assessment you must document to rely on it.
Risk Tiers and the Amended Compliance Timeline
The AI Act sorts systems into four tiers by what they are used for, not by how sophisticated they are. This lesson covers prohibited practices, the two routes into the high-risk tier, the derogation that lets a listed system out, the transparency duties, and the timeline as amended by the 2026 Digital Omnibus: which dates moved, which did not, and how grandfathering works.
