# Artificial intelligence: laws, standards and reference sources

> The laws, international instruments, technical standards, open protocols and public data that frame artificial intelligence, each with its date, its status and its primary source. 2026 edition, reviewed 9 October 2026. Canonical: https://reference.myneogroup.com/knowledge/ai/

This page lists the main texts and sources that frame artificial intelligence on 8 October 2026: the Artificial Intelligence Act of the European Union and its amended timeline, the international instruments, the rules of the United Arab Emirates and of the Asian jurisdictions where My NEO Group is present, the technical standards, the open protocols for AI agents and the public data sources. Each entry gives the official name, the date, the status and a link to the primary source.

## Declaration of interest

My NEO Group develops NEO AI, an artificial intelligence system, through its company NEO Labs. This page is published by My NEO Group as a reference. It is not legal advice. It does not assess NEO AI, or any other product, against the texts listed.

## What the law calls an AI system

The Artificial Intelligence Act of the European Union defines an AI system in Article 3(1): a machine-based system that operates with varying levels of autonomy, that may adapt after it is deployed, and that infers from the input it receives how to generate outputs such as predictions, content, recommendations or decisions.

The Recommendation of the OECD on Artificial Intelligence uses a close definition: a machine-based system that infers, from the input it receives, how to generate outputs that can influence physical or virtual environments. The OECD adds that AI systems vary in their autonomy and in their adaptiveness after deployment. The OECD updated this definition on 8 November 2023.
