This weekly update brings important news about AI agent rules from around the world. Governments are working hard to create new laws for smart computer systems that can make decisions on their own.

Ireland made big news on September 16, 2025, by creating one of the world's most complete rule systems for AI agents. The Irish government picked 15 different agencies to watch over AI systems in areas like banking, healthcare, and transportation. This makes Ireland one of the first countries in Europe to set up such detailed oversight for artificial intelligence.

At the same time, twenty countries met in Seoul, South Korea from September 15-19, 2025, to sign an important agreement about keeping people's private information safe when using AI agents. Countries like Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom all agreed to work together on making trustworthy AI systems.

In the United States, Congress held a special hearing on September 18, 2025, to talk about keeping America strong in AI development. Lawmakers are worried about making sure the US stays ahead while also keeping AI agents safe and helpful.

Experts say that current rules are not good enough for AI agents that can work by themselves. These smart systems need special attention because they can make choices without asking humans first. Companies using AI agents face challenges like following different rules in different countries and making sure their systems don't cause harm.

The European Union's AI Act continues to be the world's strongest set of AI rules. It sorts AI systems into different risk levels, with the most dangerous ones being banned completely. Insurance companies and banks must be extra careful when using AI agents because these systems are considered high-risk.
