AN ACT To amend Title 50 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to state government, so as to provide for an annual inventory of artificial intelligence usage by state agencies; to provide for annual reports of such; to provide for the authority to develop and establish certain policies; to designate the Attorney General as an applicable elected representative who may approve the issuance of certain private activity bonds to finance or refinance state charter school facilities; to provide for the establishment of procedures for public notices and hearings relative to the issuance of such bonds; to provide for definitions; to provide for related matters; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill amends Georgia's state government regulations to establish comprehensive oversight and transparency requirements for artificial intelligence (AI) usage across state agencies. Specifically, the Georgia Technology Authority will be responsible for conducting an annual inventory of AI systems used by state departments and agencies, with the first inventory due by December 31, 2025. The bill defines an AI system as a machine-based system that emulates human cognitive processes like learning, reasoning, and decision-making. By December 31, 2026, the authority must develop model policies for AI system development, procurement, implementation, and assessment. Starting December 31, 2027, all government entities must submit detailed inventories of their AI systems, including information about the system's name, vendor, capabilities, decision-making processes, and pre-implementation impact assessments. Additionally, the bill designates the Attorney General as the authority to approve private activity bonds for financing state charter school facilities, establishing specific procedures for public hearings and bond issuance. The legislation aims to increase transparency, accountability, and responsible use of artificial intelligence in Georgia's government operations.
