Following the approval of the European Union AI law, the next steps to be taken in the legislative framework are detailed.
In a context where AI regulation becomes increasingly imperative, the European Union has taken a significant step with the approval of the European Union AI Law (AI Regulation; AI Act, in English). This regulatory framework, planned for gradual implementation from 2024 to 2027, stands as a bulwark in the regulation of AI, establishing a precedent not only in Europe but globally. The next steps in the European legislative framework, as well as their gradual implementation, are detailed below.
- Application for Annex III (mid-2026): high-risk systems listed in Annex III will be subject to specific obligations from mid-2026. This phased approach allows for a more manageable implementation and progressive adaptation by entities affected.
- Application for Annex II (mid-2027): Similarly, for systems that fall under Annex II, the corresponding obligations will begin to apply in mid-2027. This final stage of the schedule provides additional time for adaptation to the more complex regulatory demands associated with these systems.
Implementing the AI Law is a challenge for both developers and regulators. Companies will have to adapt their products and strategies to meet the new standards, which may require significant investments. On the other hand, regulators must ensure effective and equitable application of these standards.
It is essential that Member States’ concerns, such as those expressed by France, are addressed, balancing the promotion of innovation with effective regulation. J.S.LL (GISP-UPC)
