Artificial Intelligence
This Florida bill imposes a broad set of restrictions and requirements on governmental entities and private AI technology companies. Governmental entities are prohibited from extending or renewing contracts with certain specified entities and from contracting for AI technology, software, or products unless defined requirements are met. The bill establishes rights for Floridians related to AI use. It requires parental or guardian consent before minors can create accounts on or use companion chatbot platforms, and mandates that those platforms make specific disclosures and implement protective measures for minors. AI technology companies are prohibited from selling or disclosing users' personal information unless that information is de-identified. The bill also bans the commercial use of an individual's name, image, or likeness generated through AI without that person's consent. Enforcement mechanisms include civil penalties, damages, and private causes of action available to affected individuals.
