Vietnam News reports that Bhutan has issued its first official guidelines regulating the use of artificial intelligence by civil servants. The document outlines ethical standards, privacy safeguards, and procedural responsibilities for AI systems deployed in government administration.

The code of conduct emphasizes transparency, non-discrimination, and human oversight in all AI-related activities. It also provides a framework for accountability and public trust, requiring periodic assessments and audits of AI applications in the public sector.

The move positions Bhutan as a proactive adopter of responsible AI governance in South Asia.
