According to an article from DataGuidance, Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a bill into law that mandates insurance coverage for damages resulting from the use of artificial intelligence (AI) systems. This new legislation aims to provide a legal framework ensuring that AI developers and operators are liable for any harm caused by their systems. It underscores the need for AI safety and accountability, requiring AI entities to obtain liability insurance to cover potential damages. This law reflects Russia's proactive stance on regulating AI technologies to protect users and maintain public trust in AI applications.
