EU weakens AI rules and faces criticism for kowtowing to Big Tech
"The postponement of rules for high-risk AI systems, including biometric identification and critical infrastructure, has been pushed back to 2027."
"Manufacturers of machines will be given more leeway, with equipment already covered by sector-specific regulations kept outside the AI Act scope."
"The EU is tightening certain AI rules, including a ban on AI-generated sexually explicit images without consent, following recent controversies."
The EU reached provisional AI Act amendments, delaying high-risk AI rules until 2027 and exempting certain sectors. Critics view this as a concession to tech giants. Changes also include more flexibility for equipment already regulated by other sectors. The EU aims to simplify digital regulations, but also tightens bans on harmful AI content.
