Consumer Protection and Product Liability - Chatbots

View primary source →

This bill regulates how developers design and create chatbots and how operators make those chatbots available to users in the state. It establishes safety and privacy protections for users generally, with enhanced protections specifically for minors under the age of 13. The bill requires that certain warnings be displayed when users interact with a chatbot. It also establishes that a chatbot is considered a 'product' for purposes of product liability actions, potentially exposing developers and operators to product liability claims. Additionally, the bill applies its provisions to governmental units.
