California Leads the Way with New Slate of AI Bills
Governor Gavin Newsom has already signed several bills relating to chatbots and independent audits, and the rest await his signature or veto. These remaining bills apply variously to employers, advertisers, large online platforms, healthcare providers, AI developers, chatbot providers, and attorneys, among others. Like some state laws and rules, however, the bill would impose obligations on employers when they rely primarily on an ADS to make such a decision.
