In forceLawBindingLegge 23 settembre 2025, n. 132 - Disposizioni e deleghe al Governo in materia di intelligenza artificiale

First national AI law in the EU, complementing the AI Act: designates AgID and the National Cybersecurity Agency (ACN) as national AI authorities, requires parental authorisation for children under 14 to use AI, keeps final decisions with professionals in health care and public administration, sets workplace and professional disclosure duties, and creates a criminal offence for unlawfully disseminating harmful AI-generated deepfakes (1 to 5 years' imprisonment). It also clarifies copyright for AI-assisted works and text-and-data mining, and delegates further rules to the Government.

Why it matters

Companies operating in Italy face extra national duties (e.g., disclosure to workers and patients, minors' access) and criminal exposure for deepfake misuse beyond the AI Act.
