What happened: A legal update reports that Venezuela published an AI ethics code with nine principles for responsible design, development, and implementation.
What is known: The reported principles include ethics, transparency, non-discrimination, documentation of automated decision processes, auditing, traceability, and human oversight.
What is not known: The Ledger has not yet logged independent implementation evidence, enforcement activity, or court interpretation of the code.
Why it matters factually: This broadens policy coverage beyond US/EU/UK defaults and keeps Latin American governance sources visible in the v0.1 index.
