## What the duty requires

A provider whose general-purpose AI model meets the Article 51(1)(a) high-impact capability condition, which is presumed once cumulative training compute exceeds 10^25 floating-point operations, must notify the Commission without delay and in any event within two weeks of the condition being met or of learning that it will be met. The notification may include arguments that the model nonetheless does not present systemic risk; the Commission decides and keeps a public list of designated models.

## What an organisation does about it

Track cumulative training compute per model against the threshold and pre-draft the notification and any rebuttal arguments.
