This measure did not pass and binds nobody; what follows is what it would have required. SB 6284 would have required a deployer of a high-risk AI system to notify a consumer when the system was used in a consequential decision affecting them, and would have required a developer or deployer of a high-risk AI system to maintain a risk-management program.
The bill passed the Senate Environment, Energy and Technology Committee and received a public hearing in Ways and Means on February 6, 2026, but the Legislature's bill history records no further action, and the 2026 regular session has since adjourned; its companion bill, HB 2667, likewise did not pass.
