The Digital Omnibus was introduced to fix the "many-hands problem" in AI value chains. It clarifies the provider-deployer split, specifically addressing how runtime tool invocations affect "substantial modification" rules. It also adjusts high-risk compliance deadlines to December 2027 and August 2028, ensuring harmonized standards are available before enforcement begins.
Example
An enterprise using a foundation model through an API integrates a real-time translation tool. The Digital Omnibus provides the framework for determining whether this new integration triggers a fresh conformity assessment or if the original provider's certification remains valid.
