The rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into the platform economy presents unprecedented challenges to legal regulation and management innovation. This paper explores the intersection of economic law, competition policies, algorithmic governance, and market fairness to address these challenges. Through theoretical analysis and empirical evidence, we develop a comprehensive framework for regulating AI-driven platforms. The study incorporates advanced mathematical models to assess the impact of AI algorithms on competition and market behavior. Additionally, we propose innovative management strategies to ensure market fairness and transparency. This research aims to bridge the gap between legal theory and practical governance in the era of AI.
