The EU AI Act—the world’s most stringent regulation for artificial‑intelligence systems-may be relaxed by the European Commission in response to intense lobbying from Big Tech and pressure from the U.S. government.
Draft changes discussed on 19 November would delay enforcement, ease transparency rules and centralise oversight under a new EU AI office, shifting the bloc’s posture from strict regulation toward competitiveness.
The potential shift underscores how technology‑policy dynamics are now central to the tech‑race between the U.S., Europe and China.
