Referred: Emerging Issues(H)
Summary
The bill adds a new section to Missouri law that forces companies offering companion AI chatbots to require user accounts, verify each user's age, and obtain parental consent before a minor can use the service. It also requires clear pop‑up warnings that users are not talking to a human and bars minors from accessing sexually explicit or suggestive chatbot content. The Attorney General would issue guidance and could bring civil actions against violators.
