Companion Artificial Intelligence Chatbots

Summary

The bill would force providers of companion artificial‑intelligence chatbots to require user accounts, verify each user's age, and, for minors, link the account to a verified parental account and block sexually explicit content. It also mandates that a pop‑up notice tell users they are talking to a bot at least every hour. Violations would be treated as unfair and deceptive trade practices, allowing the Department of Legal Affairs to seek civil penalties.
