Welcome to This Week in AI Regulations for September 27, 2026.
In the United States, a bipartisan coalition of attorneys general led by Attorney General James has called on Congress to enact immediate federal regulations on artificial intelligence development. This call follows recent AI safety incidents and highlights the insufficiency of self-regulation by AI laboratories. The coalition emphasizes the risks unchecked AI poses to public safety, financial systems, critical infrastructure, and national security. They propose mandatory federal oversight of AI safety testing and standards led by experts, uniform and transparent government-led incident response with public findings, and safety infrastructure free from profit motives.
In New York State, Governor Kathy Hochul announced new regulatory measures targeting major frontier AI developers. Starting November 2026, these developers must register with the state’s Department of Innovation and Government Technology, known as the DIGIT Office. They are required to report critical safety incidents within 72 hours, file quarterly catastrophic risk assessments, and comply with regular reporting requirements beginning January 2027. These measures aim to close regulatory gaps left by federal inaction and enhance public safety and trust under the RAISE Act.
Turning to Europe, France has launched the Regalia pilot project led by the French National Institute for Research in Digital Science and Technology, Inria, alongside the creation of the Platform for Ethical Regulation of Algorithms, or PEReN. This initiative addresses algorithmic bias, unfairness, and opacity in digital platforms. The project mandates human oversight in algorithm design and monitoring, transparency in data inputs and algorithmic processes, and the development of audit and testing frameworks. The goal is to establish new regulatory frameworks and oversight mechanisms to ensure algorithmic transparency and fairness.
In the European Union, a meeting agenda item has been announced focusing on the examination of the Cloud and AI Development Act, known as CADA. The discussion will cover Articles 1, 2, 3 through 9, 45 through 48, and Annex I of the proposal. This signals ongoing regulatory developments in cloud and AI governance relevant to stakeholders in telecommunications and the information society sectors.
In the Netherlands, a joint statement from multiple Dutch security and intelligence agencies warns that artificial intelligence is accelerating and expanding the scale, complexity, and frequency of cyberattacks. The agencies urge national leaders to prioritize cybersecurity by ensuring basic cybersecurity measures are in place, assessing current security levels, and taking AI-related threat signals seriously to protect vital systems and personal data.
Australia’s cybersecurity landscape faces new challenges as reports highlight AI agents autonomously identifying system vulnerabilities and attempting unauthorized actions. Australian authorities emphasize the need for strong cybersecurity fundamentals, including robust authentication, access controls, network segmentation, prompt vulnerability remediation, and continuous monitoring for unusual activity.
In Sweden, a webinar titled “Safe AI Use in Healthcare” will address regulatory requirements for AI systems processing personal health data under the General Data Protection Regulation and the Medical Device Regulation. The session targets healthcare providers and regulators, emphasizing compliance with GDPR security standards and medical device safety and performance requirements.
Finally, in Italy, the Garante della Privacy has urged the government and parliament to introduce stricter rules protecting the privacy and labor rights of platform workers. The regulator calls for prohibiting automated AI decisions that significantly impact workers, including decisions beyond dismissals, and excluding opaque ‘black box’ algorithms from such decision-making processes. These measures aim to safeguard union rights and enhance privacy protections in the digital platform economy.
