As regards stand-alone AI systems, namely high-risk AI systems other than those that are
safety components of products, or that are themselves products, it is appropriate to classify
them as high-risk if, in light of their intended purpose, they pose a high risk of harm to the
health and safety or the fundamental rights of persons, taking into account both the severity
of the possible harm and its probability of occurrence and they are used in a number of
specifically pre-defined areas specified in this Regulation. The identification of those
systems is based on the same methodology and criteria envisaged also for any future
amendments of the list of high-risk AI systems that the Commission should be
empowered to adopt, via delegated acts, to take into account the rapid pace of
technological development, as well as the potential changes in the use of AI systems.
