In plain language

Protects attorney-client communications involving artificial intelligence from losing privilege.

This legislation ensures that communications related to attorney-client privilege remain protected, even if they involve artificial intelligence tools. It also requires client authorization for using AI in these communications.

What this means for you
  • Workers: If you work in the legal field, this means that communications involving AI still maintain their confidentiality as long as client consent is obtained.

Summary

Provides that a communication or attorney work product otherwise protected by the attorney-client privilege or which otherwise shall not be obtainable by another party shall not lose its privileged or unobtainable character solely as a result of it being produced by, transmitted to, processed by, stored on, or otherwise facilitated through an artificial intelligence technology; requires authorization from the client to utilize artificial intelligence.
