Status: Introduced
Primary sponsor: Michael Marron (sole sponsor)
Last action: Referred to Rules Committee (Feb. 16, 2023)

Category: None (see reasoning)

The text provided primarily concerns amendments to the Freedom of Information Act in Illinois that relate to the handling of proposals or bids submitted by engineering consultants. The amendments do not explicitly address AI technologies or issues. Therefore, the categories need to be evaluated based on how closely the text relates to AI in the context of social implications, governance of data, integrity of systems, or robustness of processes. Given that AI is not mentioned within the text and none of the categories of legislation directly apply, relevance is low across the board. However, there is a mention of 'automated data processing operations' in part (o), which may relate slightly to System Integrity, but it is minimal and does not explicitly discuss any AI systems or frameworks. Thus, all categories scored a 1, indicating that they are not relevant.


Sector: None (see reasoning)

The legislation does not mention the sectors outlined. There is no discussion regarding the impact of AI on political processes, public services, the judicial system, healthcare, business environments, academic institutions, international standards, nonprofit organizations, or hybrid/emerging sectors. The text solely revolves around legislative amendments that handle the management of bids and proposals with no link to AI applications or their sectors. As such, all sectors are rated 1 for not relevant.

Description: Establishes Next New Jersey Program for artificial intelligence investments.
Summary: The Next New Jersey Program Act promotes artificial intelligence investments by offering tax credits to businesses developing AI technologies, creating jobs, and meeting sustainability standards, thus boosting economic growth in New Jersey.
Collection: Legislation
Status date: July 25, 2024
Status: Passed
Primary sponsor: Raj Mukherji (10 total sponsors)
Last action: Approved P.L.2024, c.49. (July 25, 2024)

Category:
Societal Impact
Data Governance (see reasoning)

This bill establishes the 'Next New Jersey Program,' which aims to promote investment in the field of artificial intelligence. It includes explicit references to AI-related innovations and acknowledges various AI-related activities, such as the development of AI algorithms and software, which directly connects to the social impact of AI in terms of job creation and economic development. It also establishes tax credits based on AI engagement, which may entail considerations of fairness and ethical implications in the labor market. Thus, there is a direct and significant connection to social impact, as these investments raise questions about equity and opportunity in technology access. Regarding data governance, while there are implications about managing data for AI systems, the bill lacks specificity around biases or inaccuracies. For system integrity, while there is foundational governance involved in managing AI-related businesses, there is minimal focus on overarching security protocols or transparency standards. Lastly, the robustness of AI systems isn't directly addressed in terms of performance benchmarks or certification processes. Therefore, the relevance scores vary based on the depth of AI engagement in each area related to the categories described.


Sector:
Private Enterprises, Labor, and Employment
Academic and Research Institutions
Hybrid, Emerging, and Unclassified (see reasoning)

The bill is particularly relevant to sectors that involve AI's development and usage in business, indicating strong ties to technology startups, and economic development related to AI innovations in New Jersey. It addresses the potential impact of AI in public and private sectors but does not focus on the political ramifications specifically, nor does it detail the application of AI within governmental agencies, the judicial system, or healthcare settings. While it highlights the importance of developing AI technologies, its primary intent appears to cater to the economic aspect rather than to a niche within established sectors. As such, it does not particularly align with the parameters of most sectors beyond 'Private Enterprises, Labor, and Employment' and 'Academic and Research Institutions', where there is some relevance to job creation and AI engagement in technology startups in research contexts.

Collection: Legislation
Status date: March 5, 2025
Status: Introduced
Primary sponsor: Alex Bores (sole sponsor)
Last action: print number 6540a (May 2, 2025)

Category:
Societal Impact
Data Governance
System Integrity
Data Robustness (see reasoning)

The AI-related portions of the text focus significantly on the implementation of provenance data for synthetic content created or modified by generative artificial intelligence systems. This gives rise to implications across all four categories. The Social Impact category is relevant due to the law's implications for misinformation, trust, and accountability regarding AI-generated content—a significant societal concern. Data Governance is also highly relevant, as the legislation establishes requirements for documenting the origins and modifications of content produced by AI systems, which directly relates to accurate data management. System Integrity pertains to the security and accuracy of the AI outputs as it ensures protocols on how such data is used and maintained, emphasizing the need for oversight. Robustness is relevant due to setting standards for evaluating AI systems' generative capabilities, as it sets benchmarks for the generations of synthetic media. Overall, all categories have a meaningful connection to the text due to its emphasis on the regulation of generative AI systems and their societal implications.


Sector:
Politics and Elections
Government Agencies and Public Services
Private Enterprises, Labor, and Employment
Academic and Research Institutions
Nonprofits and NGOs (see reasoning)

The text primarily relates to various sectors, especially focusing on AI's interaction with issues surrounding misinformation and societal trust associated with synthetic media. The potential implications for politics and elections arise concerning misinformation during campaigns. There is also clear relevance for government agencies and public services due to their role in implementing and adapting to the regulations imposed by the law. However, while the healthcare sector may touch upon AI's implications, its direct relevance is lower here. Academic and research institutions may benefit through research in AI governance and ethics. Overall, while several sectors are touched upon, primarily the most relevance lies within government oversight and potential impacts on political processes.

Description: Adopt the Ensuring Transparency in Prior Authorization Act
Summary: The Ensuring Transparency in Prior Authorization Act mandates clearer prior authorization processes and timelines for health care services in Nebraska, aiming to improve transparency and efficiency in health insurance practices.
Collection: Legislation
Status date: Jan. 9, 2025
Status: Introduced
Primary sponsor: Eliot Bostar (sole sponsor)
Last action: Notice of hearing for February 10, 2025 (Jan. 27, 2025)

Category: None (see reasoning)

The text mainly focuses on creating a transparent system for prior authorization within the healthcare sector. While it does mention processes and entities involved in medical health care services and prior authorization, it does not address social impacts related to AI nor data governance related to machine learning methodologies explicitly. There's a lack of AI-specific topics like performance benchmarks, security, or transparency of algorithms. No keywords concerning AI or related technologies are present, and the text does not suggest any implications of AI in these systems, thus falling short in relevance across all categories.


Sector:
Healthcare (see reasoning)

This legislation primarily pertains to the insurance and healthcare sectors, focusing on the regulations around prior authorization processes. There are no mentions of AI applications or regulations specific to AI usage in healthcare, nor implications of AI on political or business practices. It solely targets administrative processes within health benefit plans. The lack of connection to AI leads to a low relevance score across all sectors.

Description: Relating to the use of an automated employment decision tool by an employer to assess a job applicant's fitness for a position.
Summary: The bill regulates the use of automated employment decision tools by requiring bias audits and applicant notification, promoting fair hiring practices and preventing discrimination in Texas.
Collection: Legislation
Status date: March 13, 2025
Status: Introduced
Primary sponsor: Salman Bhojani (sole sponsor)
Last action: Filed (March 13, 2025)

Category:
Societal Impact
Data Governance (see reasoning)

The text discusses the use of an automated employment decision tool, which directly involves artificial intelligence and algorithmic processes in assessing job applicants. This incorporates AI technologies, their impact on employment practices, and emphasizes fairness and bias audits, making it particularly relevant to the Social Impact category. Also, it addresses the auditing of the algorithms for biases, linking closely to Data Governance. The legislation does not address system integrity or robustness in terms of compliance or benchmarking but focuses on employment decisions, fairness, disclosure, and bias reduction in automated tools. Hence, it is most relevant to Social Impact and Data Governance.


Sector:
Government Agencies and Public Services
Private Enterprises, Labor, and Employment (see reasoning)

The legislation is substantially oriented toward the use of AI in hiring processes, which clearly ties into Private Enterprises, Labor, and Employment. It specifies how AI tools should be used by employers to evaluate job applicants, which directly engages with labor market regulations and corporate governance regarding fairness in hiring practices. While there could be a tangential connection to Government Agencies through the involvement of the Texas Workforce Commission for oversight, the primary relevance lies in the employment sector. Therefore, the strongest sector fit is with Private Enterprises, Labor, and Employment, with lesser relevance to Government Agencies.
