What this means for your organization
This state regulates specific uses of AI rather than AI in general. Check whether any of your AI uses fall into the categories above, such as chatbots, synthetic media, or AI in health coverage decisions, and remember that federal law and the laws of other states where you operate may also apply.
Our 2027 AI Governance Checklist covers the steps most organizations need, and our State AI Law Trackers explain the rules for specific industries.
