AI Act vs US AI Policy Framework: Regulatory Divergence and Its Impact on Global AI Governance

The global race to regulate artificial intelligence is accelerating—and companies can no longer afford to ignore it. In this episode of Diritto al Digitale, Giulio Coraggio, Technology and Data Lawyer at DLA Piper, analyzes the growing divergence between the EU AI Act and the US AI Policy Framework, two competing models that are reshaping AI governance, compliance, and innovation strategies worldwide. The European Union is advancing a risk-based regulatory framework under the AI Act, reinforced by the latest developments of the Digital Omnibus package, introducing stricter obligations for high-risk AI systems, data governance, and compliance by design. At the same time, the United States is pursuing a more flexible, policy-driven approach based on soft law, voluntary standards, and ex post enforcement. What does this mean in practice for companies operating globally? This episode explores: - The latest updates on the EU AI Act and Digital Omnibus - The structure and impact of the US National AI Policy Framework - Key differences between ex ante compliance and ex post enforcement models - Legal, operational, and reputational risks for businesses using AI - Why AI governance is no longer optional for organizations If your business is developing, deploying, or integrating artificial intelligence, understanding these regulatory dynamics is critical to managing risk and staying competitive.
