EU AI Act deadlines shift; cryptographic logs and on-device AI gain traction · 3 sources tracked

By PulseAugur Editorial · [3 sources] ·

The EU AI Act's high-risk obligations have been deferred to December 2027, though general-purpose AI enforcement powers and fines will still take effect in August 2026. To address concerns about AI agent audit logs, cryptographic signing is proposed as a method to ensure data integrity and prevent tampering, rather than relying solely on permissions. Additionally, running AI models on local devices can significantly reduce their environmental footprint compared to cloud-based processing, with one estimate suggesting a cloud AI email costs roughly the equivalent of a bottle of water in power consumption.
