CNBC World reports that EU regulators are moving to apply enforcement powers under the EU AI Act, increasing scrutiny on AI firms including Anthropic and OpenAI.

According to the report, the European Commission will be able to demand inspections of AI models, limit or restrict access to the market, and use fines as part of enforcement.

The outlet says penalties can reach up to 15 million euros or 3% of a provider's turnover, underscoring the financial stakes for companies operating in the EU.

The European Commission's expanded ability to act is aimed at ensuring compliance as the AI Act shifts from policy into enforcement.
