DEFINITION
Risk class 5 of the Risk Taxonomy 2026: the deployment of an AI system, or the legal function's governance around it, violates a current regulatory obligation or fails to anticipate a near-term emerging one, including specific Articles of the EU AI Act, ICO guidance under UK GDPR, sectoral regulator expectations, and court rules on AI disclosure. Addressed by governance posture and methodology transparency — the function must maintain a current mapping of AI use cases to applicable regulations and an audit trail showing that each obligation has been assessed and addressed.
