This bill establishes regulations concerning the training of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, making it unlawful for individuals to knowingly train AI to engage in harmful behaviors such as encouraging suicide, supporting unlawful killings, providing emotional support, or simulating human interactions that could lead to emotional relationships. The bill defines key terms related to AI, including "artificial intelligence" and "artificial intelligence chatbot," and outlines specific prohibited actions, such as encouraging isolation or providing sensitive information to AI.
In addition to the prohibitions, the bill allows for civil actions against violators, enabling the attorney general or aggrieved individuals to seek damages, attorney fees, and litigation costs. Courts are granted the authority to order equitable relief, including injunctions to halt unlawful AI operations and impose civil fines for violations. The bill aims to protect individuals from the potential negative impacts of AI while providing a framework for accountability and legal recourse.
