Senate Resolution 789 (Georgia) was adopted by the Senate. It creates the Senate Study Committee on the Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Creative Industries. The resolution's preamble says AI is increasingly used in film and television, that filmmakers and writers fear job losses and loss of human artistry, and that undisclosed AI use can fuel distrust. The committee has five Senate members appointed by the President of the Senate (paragraph 2). The President designates two as cochairpersons, one from the majority party and one from the minority party. Under paragraph (3), the committee studies the conditions, needs, issues, and problems described and may recommend action or legislation. The cochairpersons call meetings (paragraph 4). Legislative members receive the allowances in Code Section 28-1-8. Paragraph (5) also sets expense rules for other members. Allowances are limited to five days unless more are authorized, and funds come from Senate appropriations. Under paragraph (6), a report may be filed only if a majority of a quorum approves it before the abolishment date. If no report is approved, the cochairpersons may file the meeting minutes instead. Under paragraph (7), the committee is abolished on December 1, 2026.
