- Entry updated
A business using conversational customer-service AI would have to tell consumers at the start that they are interacting with an automated system. The bill passed the Senate 56-1 but was re-referred to House Rules on May 31, 2026; it is not law.
What it does
Would require a clear and conspicuous disclosure at the beginning of a direct, real-time text or voice conversation between a consumer and a conversational customer-service AI system. The adopted Senate amendment excludes internal business operations and other uses without direct consumer interaction. It does not require repeat disclosures or impose a chatbot content rule for minors.
Analyst read
SB 317 and HB 3021 address related chatbot-disclosure concerns, but they are different proposals with different scopes. SB 317 passed the Senate after Amendment 2 narrowed it to direct conversational customer-service interactions; it was re-referred to House Rules without a House vote. Neither bill created an operative disclosure duty as of the September 23 source check.
Enforcement
Proposed enforcement under the Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act
