Bill > HB16

This bill amends Delaware's law regarding the Delaware Artificial Intelligence (AI) Commission by making several key modifications. The bill updates the definitions section to clarify terms like "Artificial Intelligence" and "Generative AI," and adjusts the numbering of existing definitions. More significantly, the bill expands the Commission's membership by adding a new provision that allows the Commission Chair to annually appoint a high school student as a nonvoting member. This student must be in 10th, 11th, or 12th grade in a Delaware public or private school, with preference given to students who have demonstrated a particular interest in and commitment to studying AI. The bill also makes some technical changes to clarify that most Commission members are voting members, and maintains the existing structure of the Commission, which includes representatives from various state agencies, higher education, private sector, legislative bodies, and appointed members with expertise in AI and related legal fields. The overall goal appears to be increasing youth engagement and diverse perspectives in discussions about artificial intelligence policy and regulation.
