The European Commission has proposed changes to the GDPR and AI Act, which critics argue would weaken data protection rules by allowing companies to use personal data for AI training without user consent and delaying regulations for high-risk AI systems. These proposed changes, part of a deregulatory push aimed at fostering innovation, have drawn criticism from privacy advocates who believe they will strip Europeans of essential privacy safeguards and benefit big tech over smaller businesses.
