EU delays high-risk AI oversight
Enforcement of stricter EU rules for high‑risk AI is postponed until 2027, creating a multi‑year regulatory window for affected systems; anonymised personal data is established as an allowed basis for AI training.
Change
The European Commission on 20 Nov 2025 unveiled the Digital Omnibus, delaying stricter oversight for high‑risk AI until 2027 and allowing tech firms to use anonymised personal data for AI training.
Why it matters
The European Commission introduced the Digital Omnibus reform package. It delays the introduction of tougher risk‑management and oversight requirements for AI systems classified as 'high‑risk' until 2027. The reform permits technology firms to use anonymised personal data to train AI models. The measures apply across the EU's digital regulation framework.
Implications
- — Providers of high‑risk AI face delayed enforcement of stricter risk‑management and oversight until 2027.
- — AI developers are authorised to use anonymised personal data for model training under EU rules.
