What applies to me? →Commerce Department Evaluation of State AI Laws
The US Department of Commerce is required, within 90 days of the December 11, 2025 Executive Order on National AI policy, to publish an evaluation identifying state AI laws that conflict with federal policy objectives. The evaluation focuses on state laws that compel AI systems to alter truthful outputs or mandate disclosures that may implicate First Amendment protections. Laws identified in the evaluation may be referred to the AI Litigation Task Force for potential federal preemption action.
EU Parliament Trilogue Negotiations on AI Act Compliance Deadline Extensions
This pending legislative process involves trilogue negotiations between the European Parliament, Council, and Commission aimed at extending key EU AI Act compliance deadlines. Reported targets would push the deadline for high-risk AI systems to December 2027 and the deadline for product-embedded AI to August 2028. The process responds to implementation difficulties encountered by regulated entities following the AI Act's initial phased obligations that took effect in February and August 2025.
European Commission Digital Omnibus on AI Regulation Proposal
The European Commission's Digital Omnibus proposal, published in November 2025, seeks to amend the EU AI Act's implementation timeline in response to administrative delays and the absence of harmonized technical standards. It targets all organizations subject to the AI Act, with particular relief provisions for small and medium enterprises. If adopted, it would postpone key high-risk AI obligations, streamline documentation requirements for SMEs, and strengthen the AI Office's supervisory role over general-purpose AI models.
Federal Communications Commission AI Model Reporting and Disclosure Proceeding
The Federal Communications Commission is initiating a formal proceeding to evaluate whether to adopt a federal reporting and disclosure standard for AI models. The proceeding is triggered by and timed to follow the Commerce Department's evaluation of existing state-level AI laws. If adopted, a resulting federal standard could preempt conflicting state AI disclosure and reporting requirements.
H.R.8094 - AI Foundation Model Transparency Act of 2026
Introduced on March 26, 2026, by a bipartisan group of U.S. lawmakers, H.R.8094 would require developers of large AI foundation models to publicly disclose information about training data, model design, known limitations, risks, and evaluation methods. The bill targets developers of large-scale AI models and imposes transparency obligations without directly regulating how those models may be used or deployed. Its stated objective is to enable public scrutiny of foundation model characteristics without placing operational restrictions on AI development.
UK AI Regulation Framework
The UK AI Regulation Framework is a principles-based, sector-led approach to AI governance that delegates primary regulatory responsibility to existing sector regulators rather than establishing a unified AI-specific regulator. It is currently transitioning toward a more structured legislative footing following the Labour government's AI Opportunities Action Plan published in January 2025.
