Estonia plans to give AI agents digital IDs with limited, auditable permissions
Sumsub_Insights · reddit · 2026-08-14
Estonia is developing official 'AI ID codes' to identify AI agents independently from the person or company they represent. The permission system would allow agents to access data, prepare documents, initiate payments, or spend within fixed limits, with verifiable and auditable actions. This could increase trust in AI agents but also raises concerns about bureaucracy.
