AI regulatory frameworks establish guidelines, policies, and laws to govern the ethical development, deployment, and use of artificial intelligence.
These frameworks address key concerns such as transparency, accountability, fairness, privacy, and bias mitigation to ensure AI systems align with human rights and societal values.
Governments and international organisations, including the European Union and the OECD, have been developing regulations to balance innovation with responsible AI usage. The principles are based on feedback from experts and scrutiny by the public as shown in this diagram.
