Article 20: Corrective Actions and Duty of Information
Note: This date is an estimate based on the expected date of entry into force. See here for a full implementation timeline.
This article states that if a company providing a high-risk AI system realizes that their system is not following the rules set by the EU, they must immediately fix the issue, stop using it, or recall it. They must also inform anyone involved in distributing or using the system. If the system poses a risk, the company must investigate why and inform the authorities responsible for monitoring the AI market. They must also inform any organization that certified the system, detailing what went wrong and what they did to fix it.
