This bill aims to establish a new chapter in Title 67 of the Idaho Code, specifically focusing on the regulation of artificial intelligence (AI). It asserts that computation is a form of personal expression, thereby granting it protections akin to free speech. The bill emphasizes the importance of minimal regulation on AI systems to foster innovation and continuous improvement. It introduces definitions for key terms related to AI, such as "artificial intelligence," "computation," and "general purpose technology," and outlines the scope of governmental entities involved.

Furthermore, the bill explicitly prohibits any governmental entity from enacting laws or ordinances that would restrict the development, training, or use of AI technologies. This includes regulations on research and development, commercial deployment, and consumer use of AI. It also states that the underlying algorithms and decision-making processes of AI systems cannot be regulated by governmental entities. The bill classifies AI technologies as general purpose technology for regulatory purposes, ensuring they are subject to applicable requirements. An emergency clause is included, making the act effective on July 1, 2025.
