EU draft AI rules could stretch fines into the 2030s
Original: Under draft EU rules, launch an AI feature in 2026 and you could still be facing a fine in 2036. Every "informal request
Commentary is circulating that draft EU AI rules could allow regulators to pursue fines a decade after an AI feature launches, with informal regulatory requests restarting the statute-of-limitations clock. Critics argue the drawn-out enforcement timeline pushes startups to build in the US rather than Europe, where they say lengthy investigations and paperwork discourage innovation.
Why now: Debate over the EU AI Act's enforcement timelines and their effect on European startups is ongoing
Evidence
