This bill proposes to amend current statutes by adding provisions that establish the privilege of communications between individuals and artificial intelligence (AI). Specifically, it states that a person's communication with AI will be considered privileged if the same communication would have been privileged had it occurred with a human professional. This insertion aims to extend the existing legal framework of privileged communications to include interactions with AI, thereby recognizing the evolving nature of professional advice and consultation in the digital age.

The bill does not delete any existing language from the current statutes but rather adds new language to clarify the status of communications with AI. The overall structure of the relevant statutes remains unchanged, with the new provisions integrated into the existing framework under the newly created Chapter 8 of Title 18 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. This update reflects a significant shift in recognizing AI as a legitimate medium for privileged communication, aligning legal standards with contemporary technological advancements.
