Has specific legislation, final regulations or other formal regulatory guidance addressing the use of AI in your jurisdiction been implemented (vs reliance on existing legislation around IP, cyber, data privacy, etc.)?

No. 

Please provide a short summary of the legislation/regulations/guidance and explain how legislators aim to strike the balance between innovation and regulation.

Not applicable.

Which agency regulates the use of AI in your jurisdiction?

No specific agency exists in the Philippines, considering that AI is not yet particularly regulated in the Philippines. Based on the various bills on AI regulation pending in the Philippine Congress, it is likely that the Department of Science and Technology will be supervising or providing staff work to such agency, council, or board that will be created to regulate AI.
