2026-10-26: SK Telecom AI Governance Report
- Agents reportedly receive employee ID numbers and designated human supervisors; roles, activity and performance are tracked; higher-autonomy or higher-impact agents need a more senior supervisor (source: 2026-10-26-ai-agent-identity-news.md, citing Seoul Economic Daily, secondary).
- A lifecycle framework — identification, access control, monitoring, evaluation, suspension or retirement — is described as developing; some elements are future plans (source: 2026-10-26-ai-agent-identity-news.md, citing SK Telecom newsroom, primary, Korean; full page not inspected).
- Status: an organizational model linking agent identity to human responsibility. Not a government-issued code, legal personhood or a national legal requirement. Details rest on newspaper reporting, not the full report (needs verification against the primary report).
