In a year in which Republicans have pushed for deregulating AI, this Republican-led bill, which implements concepts of responsible, ethical and transparent use of AI and borrows concepts from the Colorado AI Act and state government-focused AI laws enacted in Vermont and Connecticut, stands out - even if it is only applicable to the state.
