## Summary

As of 6 October 2026, the article reviews the application timetable of the AI Act (EU Regulation 2024/1689) as amended by digital omnibus 2026/1744, which entered into force on 27 July 2026. It details the obligations that already apply to companies (prohibited practices and AI literacy since February 2025, general-purpose model obligations since August 2025, transparency of generated content and chatbots since August 2026) and the deadlines postponed by the omnibus: machine-readable marking and two new prohibitions on 2 December 2026, and high-risk systems (HR, credit, education, biometrics) on 2 December 2027. It recalls the fine ceilings (up to €35 million or 7% of worldwide turnover), the progress of the French DDADUE bill designating the supervisory authorities (CNIL, DGCCRF, Arcom, ACPR) and the designation already made in Germany of the Bundesnetzagentur. It also mentions the 190 organisations that have signed the code of practice on transparency, according to the Commission.
