Assess Art. 6(3) 'No Significant Risk' Exception
euaiact_assess_art6_3_exceptionAssess whether an Annex III AI system qualifies for the Art. 6(3) exception from high-risk classification by evaluating four conditions and profiling status.
Instructions
Walk through the Art. 6(3) exception for Annex III high-risk AI systems. An Annex III system is NOT high-risk if it does not pose a significant risk to health, safety, or fundamental rights, AND falls under one of the four conditions: (a) narrow procedural task, (b) improves prior human activity, (c) detects patterns without replacing human assessment, (d) preparatory task. CRITICAL: The exception does NOT apply if the system performs profiling of natural persons (Art. 6(3) second subparagraph). Providers invoking the exception must document the assessment (Art. 6(4)) and still register in the EU database (Art. 49(2)).

|---|---|---|---|
| annex_iii_number | No | Annex III category number (1-8). Provide if known — helps the response reference the right rules. | |

| narrow_procedural_task | No | Art. 6(3)(a): intended to perform a narrow procedural task (e.g. transform unstructured to structured data, classify documents, detect duplicates). | |
| improves_prior_human_activity | No | Art. 6(3)(b): intended to improve the result of a previously completed human activity (e.g. improve drafting style). | |
| detects_patterns_without_replacing_human_review | No | Art. 6(3)(c): intended to detect decision-making patterns or deviations, not replace/influence human assessment without proper review. | |
| preparatory_task | No | Art. 6(3)(d): intended to perform a preparatory task for an assessment relevant to an Annex III use case. | |
