AI development, regulation and adoption in Italy

Overview

Italy is formalizing the implementation of the EU AI Act through legislative decrees that mandate AI training for healthcare professionals and establish transparency for AI-generated imagery. Regulatory oversight is distributed among the Agenzia per l'Italia digitale, the national cybersecurity agency, the Garante, and financial regulators.

Educational and workforce integration is expanding. The EDO-Educazione Digitale per l’Occupazione project, an e-learning initiative under the PNRR GOL Program, reported 186,151 completed digital training paths between May 2025 and June 2026. High engagement was noted in Sicily, Campania, and Lombardy, with women comprising 59.2% of participants and the 35-50 age group being the most active. Additionally, educators are undergoing specialized training in pedagogical innovation and the ethical use of AI tools like Minerva and MagicSchool AI to support classroom digitalization.

AI adoption is reshaping commerce and student life. A trend toward ‘agentic commerce’ is emerging, with over 13% of Italian digital buyers using AI for price comparisons and personalized suggestions, supported by new protocols such as the Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) from OpenAI and Stripe, and Google’s Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP). In schools, an INDIRE survey of 5,342 secondary students found that 94% use AI occasionally, with 28% using it almost daily. While 84% utilize AI as a study tool, 44% expressed concerns regarding potential dependency and the reduction of independent thinking skills. Despite these fears, 76% of students report trusting AI-generated answers, though 62% claim to verify them.

Ethical discussions are also gaining momentum, with upcoming conferences in Assisi and webinars focused on the intersection of AI, law, and human dignity.
