Two EU AI Act translations use FLOPs/s instead of cumulative FLOPs
AI summary
Arxo reports that the Portuguese and Croatian versions of Article 51(2) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 express the 10^25 threshold as floating point operations per second, while the other 22 language versions measure cumulative computation without a time unit. Recital 111 and Annex XIII(c) support a total number of operations, and the proposed correction is to delete "por segundo" and "u sekundi" from Article 51(2). The finding was reported to the Council, Parliament and Commission on 2026-10-31, with no response recorded.
