If you are unsure who is implementing and enforcing the new digital law and what the specific time frames are, you might find this post—and our post on the responsibilities of the EU Member States—very helpful. The tables below provide a comprehensive list of all obligations and tasks that the AI Act places upon to the European Commission (also referred to as the AI Office).
Crosspost from: The AI Act: responsibilities of the European Commission (AI Office) by Kai Zenner. We have reformatted the content for web and performed some editing for readability.
Tasks in 2024-2025
See a timeline of all key tasks required by the EU AI Act in 2024 and 2025, with references to the sources.
Since the technical negotiations on the AI Act have been concluded in January 2024, I hear very different numbers and deadlines when it comes to secondary legislation but also other implementing and enforcement tasks for the EU and national level. The Commission, for instance, stated on panels that they have to draft around 70 implementing and delegated acts. At the same time, many external stakeholders mentioned contradicting deadlines for templates and guidelines. So, I spent the last two weeks reading the AI Act (and the Decision to establish an AI Office), while identifying all the obligations that the law gives the Commission and the respective time frames to fulfil those tasks.
The result: the estimates mentioned above are not so far off. The slow buildup of the AI Office and its bureaucratic procedures will make it moreover very hard to meet the tight deadlines stated in the AI Act. In total, I have identified 130 responsibilities for the Commission:
- Table A: 39 tasks with the aim to establish an AI governance system, to be executed between 21 February 2024 until 02 August 2026.
- Table B: 39 pieces of secondary legislation, some of which feature clear deadlines while others depend on the Commission’s discretion. They can be divided into:
- 8 Delegated Acts;
- 9 Implementing Acts;
- 9 guidelines;
- 8 templates / benchmarks;
- 2 Codes of Practice;
- 2 categories of Codes of Conducts;
- 1 standardization request.
- Table C: 34 categories of enforcement activities on EU level, some of them will start on 2 February 2025.
- Table D: 18 tasks with the aim to conduct ex-post evaluation of the law, to be executed between 2025 and 2031.
I hope that this list is helpful for civil society, academics, and SMEs that do not have the necessary resources to monitor the implementation and enforcement of the AI Act on the EU level. These tables should allow them to identify their key priorities and to focus their activities with regards to monitoring the European Commission.
Introductory Remarks
1. Transition periods
According to Article 113, the EU AI Act enters into force on 1 August 2024, which is twenty days after its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union on 12 July 2024.
Consequently, the new law becomes applicable on 2 August 2026, which is twenty-four months from the date of the entry into force.
See here for a full implementation timeline which includes all key milestones listed here, and more.
There are however three special transition periods for certain categories of articles in the AI Act:
- Six months from the date of the entry into force of the AI Act (2 February 2025) Chapter I (Article 1 – 4 [Introduction]) and Chapter II (Article 5 [Prohibitions]) will apply.
- Twelve months from the date of the entry into force of the AI Act (2 August 2025) Chapter III (Article 28 -39 [Notified bodies]), Chapter V (Article 51 – 56 [GPAI]), Chapter VII (Article 64 – 70 [Governance]), Article 78 [Confidentiality], and Art 99 – 100 [penalties] will apply.
- Thirty-six months from the date of the entry into force of the AI Act (2 August 2027) Article 6(1), Annex I, and the corresponding obligations will apply.
2. AI systems or GPAI models that are already placed on the market or are put into service
Article 111 lays down specific rules for AI systems and GPAI models that have been already placed on the market / put into service before the AI Act entered into force. It presents three cases:
- AI systems which are components of large-scale IT systems (Annex X) and that have been placed on the market / put into service before 2 August 2027 need to be compliant with the AI Act by 31 December 2030.
- All other high-risk AI systems that have been placed on the market / put into service before 2 August 2026 need to be compliant with the AI Act once they are subject to significant changes in their design. If the provider or deployer of that high-risk AI system is however a public authority, it needs to be compliant with the AI Act by 2 August 2030.
- GPAI models that have been placed on the market / put into service before 2 August 2025 need to be compliant with the AI Act by 2 August 2027.
All time frames in the third column of the tables below assume that the AI system has been place on the market / put into service after 2 August 2026 or that the GPAI model has been placed on the market / put into service after 2 August 2025.
3. The role of the AI Office
According to Article 3(47), the AI Office stands for the Commission’s function of contributing to AI governance as well as the implementation, monitoring and supervision of AI systems and GPAI models provided for in the Commission Decision of 24 January 2024. The definition also states that all references in the law to the AI Office shall be understood as references to the European Commission.
The reader might ask why the AI Act features both terms, in particular since the AI Office should become the new single-point-of-contact for AI within the Commission. The reason is that the term was only added to the legal text during the trilogue negotiations, in an AI governance system that knew so far only the Commission and the AI Board. According to the political agreement in December 2023, the AI Office would have been integrated in that AI governance system, yet being only responsible for Chapter V (GPAI models). Unfortunately, its competences have been afterwards extended to many other parts of the AI Act.
The result is—at best—legal confusion. It might also lead to the exclusion of other departments of the Commission in the implementation and the enforcement of the AI Act. Since the ‘AI Board’ was replaced by the ‘AI Office’ in many chapters (also after the political agreement), the Member States have (probably without realizing) given up many of their competences as they are represented by the AI Board but not by the AI Office.
