This bill died with 2025 First Extraordinary 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This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there are no live odds of enactment.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.

Summary

The bill establishes that the use of artificial intelligence systems or required disclosure artificial intelligence systems (artificial intelligence systems) must comply with the "Colorado Consumer Protection Act". The attorney general may bring a claim against a developer or a deployer that uses an artificial intelligence system in a way that violates the "Colorado Consumer Protection Act". A developer or a deployer of an artificial intelligence system must disclose to a consumer when the consumer is interacting with the artificial intelligence system and not with a human in certain circumstances. The bill establishes certain requirements for claims brought by the attorney general and parameters for court orders resulting from those claims. The attorney general may adopt rules for the implementation and enforcement of this provision of the bill.A developer of an artificial intelligence system is also subject to the provisions of the "Colorado Anti-discrimination Act" if the artificial intelligence system is deployed in a way that violates the "Colorado Anti-discrimination Act". An individual may file a complaint with the Colorado civil rights division against the developer if the developer's artificial intelligence system discriminates against the individual in certain circumstances.The bill requires that contracts entered into by a Colorado public school, a state agency, or other public entity comply with the provisions of the "Colorado Consumer Protection Act" or the "Colorado Anti-discrimination Act" in relation to the use and deployment of artificial intelligence systems and that a contractor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless a state agency or public entity.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.)

Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Bill HB 1008 adds specific consumer protections for interactions involving high-risk artificial intelligence systems, requiring developers to take reasonable measures to prevent algorithmic discrimination. It clarifies that these measures must begin by October 1, 2026, and allows the attorney general to enforce compliance under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act. This change matters because it aims to ensure that consumers are safeguarded against potential biases and harmful impacts of AI technology, promoting fair treatment and accountability in its deployment.
