Companion chatbots: children’s safety.

Summary

The law adds new rules for companies that offer companion chat‑bots, obligating them to verify a user’s age, warn children they are talking to AI, and limit harmful content. It forces operators to conduct yearly risk assessments, undergo independent child‑safety audits and keep records, with the Attorney General overseeing compliance. The goal is to reduce physical, financial, emotional, and privacy harms to children using these bots.
