Akbayan Party-list Rep. Chel Diokno has revived efforts to establish a national artificial intelligence (AI) governance framework by filing the proposed AI Governance Act in the House.
House Bill 10362 seeks to promote responsible AI use while protecting workers and Filipinos from potential risks, including job displacement and discriminatory decisions.
The measure would provide affected workers with reskilling, redeployment, labor transition support, and social protection.
It also proposes an AI Bill of Rights, advance notice for workers affected by high-impact AI systems, and safeguards against relying solely on AI in workplace decisions.
The bill would also create a multi-sector AI advisory council and impose penalties for unlawful AI use.
