This bill died with 2025 Regular Session. It reached “In Committee” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.
This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there are no live odds of enactment. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

793 added · 702 removedPlain-language change summary
The amendment to HB 60 clarified the definition of an "artificial intelligence system" by specifying that it is a machine learning-based system rather than any machine-based system. This change emphasizes the focus on advanced, learning-enabled technologies and how they interact with issues of diversity and discrimination. Overall, this is important because it narrows the scope of the bill to better address the complexities and risks associated with high-risk AI systems.
