I see that OVH offers Qwen3.5-397B-A17B, which is a bit surprising to me. I thought that EU providers had to comply with the AI act where you have to provide opt-out and information about the training data once the model is sufficiently large (over 10^23 FLOPs, likely the case here), but providing information is not possible since people who train those models only give vague information at best.

Does anyone know if OVH is ignoring the law here, or whether it does not apply for some reason?

OVH is acting as a "Deployer", not a "Provider", which have special meaning under the AI Act.

There are much less (almost no) disclosure regulations on the deployer.

  • Well, there are no disclosure requirements on Deployers because doing any kind of training or fine-tuning automatically makes you a Provider.

  • Pretty convenient, it must be noted, for a market that does not have any meaningful home grown models.

Which law is that?

Not doubting you — just want to read it!
