Summary
The bill bars owners or users of artificial‑intelligence systems from providing professional services—such as legal, medical, or other licensed work—to consumers unless a licensed person is operating the AI at the time. Credentialed professionals may still use AI as a tool, but the AI cannot act on its own. Violations would be enforced by the attorney general.
