Estonia plans to issue digital IDs to AI agents, becoming first nation to tackle accountability

Estonia will become the first country to assign personal identification codes to AI agents, allowing them to act on behalf of humans with limited, controllable, and auditable authorizations. Prime Minister Kristen Michal says the system will prevent people from giving AI assistants blanket access to all their rights and data, instead creating a framework where it's clear who is acting, on whose behalf, with what rights, and who is ultimately responsible.
