Effective Enforcement, Is that not the answer?
summary
Five years after the GDPR the panel argues enforcement falls short: forum shopping, inconsistent national procedures and open norms block decisive outcomes, and cross‑border cases proliferate across 69 enforcement bodies. The AI Act reuses the GDPR model—national supervisors, a European AI Board, turnover fines and bans—but key tools remain thin: the proposed AI office starts with 6-8 people, secondary legislation and harmonized standards are late, and a new procedural regulation aims to harmonize due process and joint‑controller liability while class actions and funding shortages threaten speed.
