This initiative, introduced by D66 member Ilana Rooderkerk, focuses on AI literacy, critical thinking, and the identification of disinformation. The motion follows reports of significant AI integration in academia, including findings that over half of master's theses in the past year were partially or entirely written with chatbot assistance. Subsequently, the Dutch cabinet approved a broader strategic vision titled “Choosing AI for Everyone,” proposed by State Secretary for Digital Economy and Sovereignty, Aerdts. This policy aims to proactively manage the impact of AI on the economy, society, and security. Acknowledging the difficulty of full technological independence, the government intends to build domestic knowledge and capacity to avoid dependence on single countries or corporations. The strategy emphasizes collaboration within the European Union and with international partners like Singapore, South Korea, Japan, and Canada, while targeting key sectors such as healthcare, energy, and high-tech industries. ## Timeline ### 2026-11-06: Netherlands adopts cabinet vision for artificial intelligence The Dutch government has approved a new AI vision to boost domestic knowledge and capacity while fostering European collaboration and reducing dependency on single global players. 9 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/netherlands-adopts-cabinet-vision-for-artificial-intelligence ### 2026-11-04: Netherlands House of Representatives calls for national AI education strategy The Dutch House of Representatives has approved a motion for a national AI strategy in vocational and higher education to improve AI literacy and critical thinking among students and teachers. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/netherlands-house-of-representatives-calls-for-national-ai-education-strategy --- Cite as: Netherlands artificial intelligence policy development.
