The European Commission has said that the Artificial Intelligence (AI Act) rules will be implemented according to the legal timetable without delay, despite calls from big companies such as Google and Meta. The EC spokesperson said there will be no grace periods and obligations for high-risk AI models will start in August 2026. The Commission is also planning measures to simplify digital rules, especially for small businesses, which fear compliance costs.
