This episode explores Vietnam's first comprehensive Law on Artificial Intelligence, set to take effect on March 1, 2026, which establishes a risk-based regulatory framework similar to the EU AI Act but with a distinct focus on national sovereignty. We analyze the four distinct risk categories ranging from "unacceptable" prohibitions to "low-risk" systems, detailing the compliance obligations for essential sectors such as healthcare, finance, and education. Finally, we discuss how the government aims to balance strict safety measures with innovation through the creation of regulatory sandboxes, AI clusters, and a National AI Development Fund.

The Intelligence and Security Committee’s 2023–2025 report reveals an Intelligence Community operating on a permanent "crisis footing," forcing agencies to continuously divert resources from long-term priorities to handle immediate conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East. While the community pivots to address the complex "whole-of-state" threats posed by China, Russia, and Iran, it is simultaneously racing to modernize its technological infrastructure through massive Cloud and AI investments. However, the Committee warns that effective democratic scrutiny of these expanding powers is at risk, citing severe understaffing and a government failure to update the oversight body's remit for over a decade.
