Claim LD12-HQ-C04 (v1.0)

The EU AI Office began using information-request powers after its GPAI enforcement powers became applicable; the exact report that more than 30 providers received initial RFIs remains press-relayed.

Research opportunities this claim motivates

What this claim leaves open for research. Each is a hypothesis about a gap, not a finding.

Did signing the EU's voluntary AI code change what model providers actually do?The AI Office has begun sending information requests, so the regulator's own view of provider practice may later provide an outside check on document-based scores; the claim does not establish non-compliance by anyone.
