Bill Summary

AN ACT relating to a prohibition on the use of artificial intelligence technology for classroom instruction.

AI Summary

This bill prohibits school districts and open-enrollment charter schools in Texas from using artificial intelligence (AI) technology for two specific purposes: providing instruction to students and replacing or supplementing a teacher's role in instructing or interacting with students during a course of instruction. The legislation will take effect for the 2025-2026 school year, with an immediate implementation contingent upon receiving a two-thirds vote from members of the Texas legislature. If the bill does not receive the necessary immediate voting support, it will automatically take effect on September 1, 2025. The bill aims to maintain human-led instruction in Texas classrooms by restricting the use of AI technologies in direct educational interactions, reflecting concerns about potential over-reliance on artificial intelligence in the educational setting.
