Overview
Severity: MEDIUM | Affected: EU-based AI Developers | Category: policy
The European Parliament has officially passed the 'AI Model Integrity Act' (AMIA), a new regulation that strengthens the security and transparency requirements of the original EU AI Act. Effective immediately for new systems, the law mandates that developers of 'high-risk' AI applications must provide a comprehensive AI Bill of Materials (AI-BOM). This includes detailed documentation of training datasets, data sources, model dependencies, and pre-trained components used in the AI supply chain. Furthermore, these high-risk systems are now subject to mandatory, independent third-party security audits before they can be deployed within the EU market. The audits will focus on vulnerability assessments, algorithmic bias, and data privacy compliance. Non-compliance can lead to severe penalties, including fines of up to 6% of a company's global annual turnover. This legislation aims to create a more secure and accountable AI ecosystem across the European Union.
