Quote: "An act which establishes a foundational, principle-based framework designed to balance rapid AI innovation with safety, ethical governance, and risk management. The Act designates the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) as the central authority, directing the Ministry of Digital Affairs (MODA) to create an internationally aligned risk classification system for AI applications. It codifies seven key principles—including human autonomy, privacy protection, safety, and transparency—and mandates the government to promote R&D, provide funding for infrastructure, protect labor rights, and develop regulatory sandboxes, while requiring high-risk AI systems to display warnings. The legislation emphasizes a "human-centric" approach, aiming to foster a robust AI industry while mitigating threats to public order, national security, and social equity."
