In this edition of Byte Back AI, we provide updates on AI bills in numerous states, including new laws enacted in Maryland, Arkansas, North Dakota, and West Virginia, bills passing out of the legislatures in Montana and Tennessee, and bills crossing chambers in Nevada, South Carolina, Florida, Montana, and Texas. We also provide a summary of last week’s hearing from the California Assembly’s Privacy and Consumer Protection committee. Our special feature this week is a summary of the Texas Responsible AI Governance Act (HB 149). Finally, we provide readers with our “three things to know this week” and an updated state AI bill tracker chart. As always, the contents provided below are time-sensitive and subject to change.
