"The AI Omnibus weakens the AI Act before key safeguards have even started to apply. It delays accountability, reduces transparency, fragments the AI Act’s horizontal logic and gives industry lobbyists a clear signal that implementation can be used to reopen obligations they dislike.
This matters beyond AI. The same deregulatory logic is visible in the Data Omnibus and the Digital Fitness Check, as well as in other areas far beyond digital rights. If this model becomes normal, the EU digital rulebook will remain permanently open to pressure whenever safeguards become inconvenient.
In our accompanying analysis, we explain the main changes in more detail. The conclusion is clear: the European Parliament should reject the AI Omnibus deal. Policymakers who care about fundamental rights, rule of law, and meaningful accountability must resist the normalisation of deregulation, whether through Omnibus files or any other rushed procedure used to weaken hard-won safeguards."
