Legal & Regulatory Frameworks Weekly AI News
November 10 - November 18, 2025This weekly update covers important developments in how countries and organizations are creating rules for agentic AI - a new type of artificial intelligence that can make decisions and take actions on its own. The Information Technology Industry Council (ITI) released recommendations for how governments should handle agentic AI, warning about risks like systems making mistakes that cascade into bigger problems. Around the world, different regions are taking different approaches. North America focuses on balancing safety with allowing companies to innovate, Europe is creating the strictest rules to ensure AI is trustworthy and fair, and Asia-Pacific is moving quickly to deploy agentic AI while gradually adding safety rules. A major court case in the United Kingdom about artificial intelligence copyright issues was decided on November 4, 2025, helping clarify how AI and intellectual property laws work together. Organizations like FINOS are creating practical guides that help banks and financial companies safely use agentic AI while following all the rules. The key message from all these developments is clear: as AI agents gain the power to act independently, governments, companies, and organizations worldwide are working together to make sure these systems are transparent, accountable, and safe for everyone.
