An EU Parliament committee has endorsed a proposal to delay the full enforcement of the AI Act.
The Story
The new deadline for compliance is now set for 2027.
Why It Matters
Don't pop the champagne. This isn't a reprieve, it's a shifted deadline. The initial August 2026 enforcement for some rules is pushed to 2027. For regulated European SMBs, this means more time, not less urgency. Use this window to get your internal house in order, not to wait for vendors selling silver bullets.
What To Do About It
