Executive Vice-President Henna Virkkunen confirmed that the AI Office sent formal requests for information to general-purpose model providers based in different regions, reported to include OpenAI, Anthropic and Google. Two separate RFIs went out: one on model security, independent external evaluations and post-market monitoring, and one demanding training-content summaries from providers who never published them. Incorrect, incomplete or misleading answers carry fines up to €15M or 3% of global annual turnover, and the responses enter a permanent supervisory record. The powers took effect August 2. This is the first time they've been used, and the training-content summary demand is the one that has teeth for anyone whose data provenance story is thin.
