Requires the owner, licensee or operator of a generative artificial intelligence system to conspicuously display a notice on the system's user interface that is reasonably calculated to consistently apprise the user that the outputs of the generative artificial intelligence system may be inaccurate.

        Introduced  by  M.  of  A.  VANEL, OTIS -- read once and referred to the
          Committee on Science and Technology

        AN ACT to amend the general business law, in relation to requiring warn-
          ings on generative artificial intelligence systems

          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:

     1    Section 1. The general business law is amended by adding a new section
     2  399-zzzzzz to read as follows:
     3    §  399-zzzzzz. Warnings on generative artificial intelligence systems.
     4  1. As used in this section the following terms shall have the  following
     5  meanings:
     6    (a) "Generative artificial intelligence system" shall mean any artifi-
     7  cial  intelligence system whose primary function is to generate content,
     8  which can take the form of code, text, images, and more.
     9    (b) "Artificial intelligence" shall mean a machine-based  system  that
    10  can,  for  a  given  set  of human-defined objectives, make predictions,
    11  recommendations, or decisions influencing real or virtual  environments.
    12  Artificial  intelligence  systems use machine- and human-based inputs to
    13  perceive real and virtual environments; abstract such  perceptions  into
    14  models  through analysis in an automated manner; and use model inference
    15  to formulate options for information or action. This definition includes
    16  but is not limited to systems that use machine learning, large  language
    17  model,  natural  language  processing, and computer vision technologies,
    18  including generative AI.
    19    2. The owner, licensee or operator of a generative artificial intelli-
    20  gence system shall conspicuously display a warning on the system's  user
    21  interface that is reasonably calculated to consistently apprise the user
    22  that the outputs of the generative artificial intelligence system may be
    23  inaccurate and/or inappropriate.
    24    3.  Where  such owner, licensee or operator of a generative artificial
    25  intelligence system fails to provide the warning required in subdivision

         EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                              [ ] is old law to be omitted.
                                                                   LBD01087-01-5
        A. 3411                             2

     1  two of this section, such owner, licensee or operator shall be  assessed
     2  a  civil  penalty  of the lesser of twenty-five dollars per user of such
     3  system or one hundred thousand dollars. Each calendar year during  which
     4  a violation continues shall constitute a separate violation.
     5    §  2.  This  act shall take effect on the ninetieth day after it shall
     6  have become a law.
