International regulatory analysis

The Federal Council is interested in the developments, opportunities and problems presented by artificial intelligence. It has tasked DETEC with presenting possible regulatory approaches to artificial intelligence by the end of 2024. This analysis of AI regulation in various countries around the world forms part of the basic analyses for this overview. This analysis of regulatory objectives and approaches will provide insights into how AI is regulated abroad and how Switzerland could learn from this to define the desired legal framework with regard to AI.

The aim is to present international regulatory approaches to artificial intelligence and to see how regulations could be developed in Switzerland.

In the first instance, this analysis of regulatory objectives and approaches will provide insights into how AI is regulated abroad and how Switzerland could learn from this to define the desired framework with regard to AI. The aim is to achieve this through a review of the current situation, which should be available by the end of 2024.

The measure is useful for Digital Switzerland because it is also affected by AI.
