EU Sticks with Timeline for AI Rules, Dismissing Calls for a Pause From some Companies and Countries

  • The European Commission confirmed it will implement the AI Act’s provisions on general-purpose AI models starting 2 August 2025 as planned.
  • This decision follows pressure from 46 CEOs and major tech firms who requested a two-year pause, citing unclear and overlapping rules that could hinder AI development.
  • The AI Act will phase in, with specific provisions already in effect since February and obligations for high-risk AI models set for August 2026.
  • Commission spokesperson Thomas Regnier stated at a press conference, "There is no stop the clock, there is no pause," emphasizing strict adherence to legal deadlines.
  • The EU plans to enforce the AI Act on schedule, requiring developers to prepare for compliance while considering a possible limited grace period on the voluntary GPAI Code of Practice only.
