Finland
Distributed supervision across existing sector regulators; public-sector AI literacy focus
Regulatory posture
Finland implements the AI Act through its existing sector regulators rather than a single new authority, keeping supervision close to domain expertise. Its distinctive contribution is capacity rather than rules: the Elements of AI programme has been the most widely adopted public AI literacy effort in Europe.
