7 US states plan legislation to regulate AI bias, requiring impact assessments and opt-out options.
7 U.S. states plan to introduce legislation to regulate bias in artificial intelligence (AI), addressing concerns that AI systems have been found to discriminate based on race, gender, or income. With AI increasingly used in job screening, rental applications, and medical care, the proposals require companies using automated decision tools to conduct impact assessments, including explanations of how AI is used in decision-making, data collected, and analysis of discrimination risks. Some bills also require companies to inform customers of AI usage and allow them to opt out.
