Well it depends how the AI operates, is distributed, etc. Any AI that affects people and populations in multiple regions will need to adapt to the laws in those different regions. Which could mean a lot of extra complexity, even if you limited it just to the US. You can't assume the same AI setup that'd work fine in the US would work in the UK or vice versa, because the laws aren't consistent about many elements. Either way, it's still a complicated thing to figure out.
