German AI Policy Dataset

The German AI policy dataset was compiled based on an examination of the OECD AI Observatory Dashboard (OECD AI Policy Observatory, 2023) and a detailed search on websites of German government bodies. This search was conducted using the keywords "KI" (AI) and "Künstliche Intelligenz" (Artificial Intelligence), which appear in the title or text of a document. The government websites included all German ministries that were active during the time frame from 2012 until 2021, as well as the Bundestag (German parliament). The dataset was created in the context of the international research project "Shaping 21st Century AI – Controversies and Closure in Media, Policy, and Research".
