Bill > HB3592

This bill establishes the Oregon Commission on Artificial Intelligence, a 14-voting-member and 3-nonvoting-member body tasked with comprehensively monitoring and analyzing artificial intelligence (AI) technologies' impacts across various domains. The commission will conduct extensive research on AI's benefits and risks, including reviewing policy issues, existing legal protections, potential economic opportunities, workforce implications, privacy concerns, and potential discriminatory effects. Members will represent diverse sectors including business, labor, education, consumer advocacy, and vulnerable communities, and will be appointed by the Governor. The commission must provide an annual report to the Legislative Assembly with recommendations for legislation, regulations, or policies. Additionally, the bill directs the State Chief Information Officer to appoint a Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer who will assist the commission and provide policy support. The commission is empowered to establish advisory subcommittees focusing on areas like workforce, privacy, ethics, education, and innovation, and will seek input from various state agencies. The bill also allows the Oregon Department of Administrative Services to charge assessments for AI-related services and includes an appropriation to support the Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer's work, reflecting a comprehensive approach to understanding and responsibly managing AI's development and implementation in Oregon.
