Answer.
No — the General-Purpose AI Code of Practice is a voluntary instrument that helps GPAI model providers demonstrate compliance with the AI Act's GPAI obligations (which themselves became applicable 2025-08-02) before harmonised standards exist; signing is optional but offers a presumption-of-conformity bridge. It is a voluntary bridge, not a binding rule. Planisphere can supply model-behaviour evidence aligned with the Code's transparency and risk elements; it does not sign the Code on your behalf or provide legal advice.
