The French Competition Authority has shifted focus from upstream AI model development to downstream AI agents that autonomously coordinate tasks across digital services, identifying risks around market concentration, barriers to expansion, platform dominance, and control over AI-driven e-commerce interfaces.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of E-commerce.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

The French regulator is sharpening rules on AI platforms controlling e-commerce access; you need to rethink how your product’s visibility depends on AI agents as gatekeepers to avoid getting locked out or disadvantaged.
