# EU AI Act interview scorecard

Candidate: ______  Interviewer: ______  Date: ______

| # | Question | Listen for | Score 1 to 4 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | How would you decide whether we are the provider or the deployer of an AI system? | The Article 3 definitions, then Article 25: putting our name on a high-risk system, making a substantial modification or changing its intended purpose makes us the provider. | |
| 2 | Walk me through the Act's risk tiers. | Banned practices (Article 5), high-risk systems (Article 6 with Annexes I and III), transparency duties (Article 50), general-purpose AI models (Chapter V), and everything else. | |
| 3 | Which dates matter to us after the July 2026 amendment? | 2 February 2025 for literacy and the bans, 2 August 2025 for general-purpose models, 2 August 2026 as the general date, 2 December 2027 for Annex III high-risk systems, 2 August 2028 for Annex I. | |
| 4 | What would you do in your first month to get us ready for 2 December 2027? | An inventory, a risk tier and an owner for each system, then a gap list against Article 26 (deployers) or Article 16 (providers). | |
| 5 | How does the AI Act sit alongside GDPR? | Both apply. Deployers use the provider's information for the DPIA under Article 26(9), and the fundamental rights impact assessment can build on the DPIA. | |
| 6 | What does Article 4 ask of us today? | Measures to support the AI literacy of staff and others using AI on our behalf, fitted to their role and the context of use, with a record of what was done. | |
| 7 | Marketing wants to publish AI-generated images of people. What applies? | Article 50(4): deployers must disclose deepfakes, from 2 August 2026, with a lighter touch for evidently artistic or satirical work. | |
| 8 | A high-risk system we deploy causes a serious incident. What happens next? | Inform the provider straight away under Article 26(5), keep the logs, and support the provider's report to the market surveillance authority under Article 73. | |
