Summary

HB 102 creates new crimes for creating, distributing, or threatening synthetic sexual material and for developing AI systems designed for child pornography or self‑harm. It also says using AI to commit a crime is not a legal defense and gives AI developers limited immunity unless they knowingly facilitate illegal use. Violations can carry up to ten years in prison and $10,000 fines, with higher penalties for repeat offenses.
