European lawmakers have voted to delay key parts of the EU AI Act, the bloc's flagship law for regulating artificial intelligence, and also support proposals to ban nudify apps. These measures, approved by a large majority in the European Parliament, would extend compliance deadlines for high-risk AI systems to December 2027 and for companies developing AI systems covered by sector-specific safety rules to August 2028. The decision follows widespread public outrage over the release of pornographic deepfakes on X. It is unclear whether these changes can be implemented before the original August deadline, as parliament cannot unilaterally change European law.
