Senate Bill No. introduced by D. Emrich aims to revise laws related to artificial intelligence (AI) by requiring manufacturers of publicly distributed online media to disclose their use of AI systems. Specifically, the bill mandates that these manufacturers inform users when AI is used to direct or control the information they receive, and it must provide users with an option to opt out of such systems. Additionally, any online media generated in whole or in part by AI must include identifiable markers that alert users to the AI's involvement, as well as embedded markers for identification purposes if the original markers are removed. Importantly, the bill excludes government entities from these requirements.

The bill also provides definitions for key terms, such as "artificial intelligence," which refers to computer systems that can imitate human behavior and manage information flow, and "markers," which encompass various forms of visual or audio disclosures. The new section introduced in the bill is intended to be codified as part of Title 30, ensuring that the provisions apply accordingly.
