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. However, as for the legislative framework for AI, the competent Slovak authorities are currently taking initial steps towards drafting a legislative proposal aimed at implementing certain provisions of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 of the European Parliament and the Council of June 13, 2024, which establishes harmonized rules on artificial intelligence in EU (the AI Act). The legislative proposal is expected to be available for public consultation during the review procedure in March 2025.

Which agency regulates the use of AI in your jurisdiction?

In the case of the Slovak Republic, it is not yet clear whether a separate state body will be created to control AI or whether this task will be the responsibility of the Ministry of Investment, Regional Development and Informatization of the Slovak Republic ("MIRRI"), which is in charge of AI regulation.
