Draft Law for the Proper Use and Governance of Artificial Intelligence

The Draft Law for the Proper Use and Governance of Artificial Intelligence in Spain outlines a regulatory framework aimed at ensuring ethical and reliable AI deployment. The primary goals include promoting human-centered AI, enhancing transparency, and addressing the challenges posed by autonomous AI systems. Key policy areas focus on governance, ethics, industry innovation, and compliance with international standards, particularly in alignment with EU regulations. The document emphasizes the establishment of the Spanish Agency for AI Supervision and a coordinated governance structure among various national authorities to ensure uniform application of regulations. It also highlights the importance of fostering innovation while safeguarding fundamental rights and ethical standards in AI use. The strategy is part of broader initiatives like the Spain Digital 2025 plan, which aims to drive digital transformation and economic growth through responsible AI development. The time horizon for these initiatives aligns with ongoing EU regulatory efforts, with immediate implementation of governance mechanisms and long-term commitments to ethical AI practices.
