What changed?

The Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology and the Ministry of Justice published Israel's AI policy, preferring sector regulation and soft tools over a horizontal law, with common ethical principles and a coordination centre.

What does it mean in practice?

Organisations in Israel should expect sector regulators, not a single AI law, to set requirements.
