Artificial intelligence program: Attorney General.
- Establishes a new program within the Attorney General's office to build expertise in artificial intelligence.
- Requires the Attorney General to designate a specialized team for handling AI-related legal and policy issues.
- Mandates collaboration with academic institutions and civil rights organizations on AI system analysis.
- Requires annual public reports to the Legislature on AI developments starting July 2027.
Senator McNerney's artificial intelligence oversight legislation directs the California Attorney General to establish a dedicated program building internal expertise on AI technologies, their applications, and implications for civil rights and regulatory policy.
The Attorney General's office would designate a specialized team within the Department of Justice focused on AI-related legal and policy matters. This team would include legal and technical staff with expertise in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and automated decision systems. The program mandates collaboration with academic institutions, civil rights organizations, and technical experts to conduct evidence-based analysis of AI systems, while also working alongside the Department of Technology and Government Operations Agency.
Beginning July 1, 2027, the Attorney General must submit annual public reports to the Legislature detailing the program's activities, notable developments in AI law and policy, and recommendations for additional state oversight measures. The reporting requirement creates an ongoing mechanism for legislative awareness of artificial intelligence developments and their implications for California's regulatory framework.
