Korea AI Basic Act Art. 32: safety duties for high-compute systems

Systems with at least 10^26 FLOP of cumulative training compute, built with the most advanced technology and posing broad and serious risk (Decree Art. 24), identify, assess and mitigate risks across the lifecycle and report the results to MSIT
