The amendment in Article 107 requires that when new rules are made for AI systems used in vehicles as safety components, they must consider specific safety rules in the AI Act, ensuring these advanced systems follow clear, stricter guidelines on safety, reliability, and consumer protection standards before they enter the market.

The EU is adding these specific rules to ensure that artificial intelligence systems used in cars are safe, reliable, and trusted by consumers; they want to make sure that these technologies function correctly and safely, given the potential risks associated with automated technology in transportation.

Delegated acts’ are additional rules or updates the European Commission can make to existing regulations; in this case, they allow simpler and quicker adjustments concerning AI safety systems in vehicles, without creating entirely new laws, keeping legislation timely, flexible, and responsive to technology advancements.

This amendment means car manufacturers must ensure that any vehicle using AI safety systems complies with the stricter rules aligned with the AI Act; neglecting to do so could delay or prevent their products from being approved for sale within the European market, impacting their competitiveness and access.
