BSA has responded to the European Commission’s consultation on draft guidance for incident reporting under the AI Act, underscoring the need for clear, consistent, and interoperable rules for high-risk AI systems. We encourage the Commission to align reporting obligations with existing EU frameworks, ensure proportionality in what qualifies as a “serious incident,” and provide workable expectations for providers and deployers. Our submission reflects BSA members’ commitment to advancing safe, trustworthy AI while supporting Europe’s digital innovation and competitiveness.
