Member state requirement - question

[dmuijen]

Hello,

Thanks for the elaborate overview and assesment of various models in relation to the EU AI act, very insightful to advise clients in future outlook on EU AI act compliancy in relation to use of LLM's.

One question, for Huggingface BLOOM in relation to requirement 22 I'm a bit confused about the 0 score. The model has a permissive license with only restrictions on certain use cases to ensure AI is used responsibly. Where and how you deploy it is like any other (open source) model on Huggingface: up to you on your own infrastructure connected to the internet anywhere in the world. You can download and use the model on any computer in any member state or in any Cloud provider that is available in member states. So in that sense isn't it easily accessible and "made available in the Union" since all you need is working internet connection and infrastructure capable of hosting the model?
