AI Summary
This bill, titled the "AI for Main Street Act," amends the Small Business Act to require Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs), which are organizations that help small businesses start and grow, to provide assistance to small businesses regarding the use of artificial intelligence (AI). Specifically, SBDCs will be tasked with offering information, guidance, and training on AI, including best practices, how to use AI for planning, data protection, cybersecurity, regulatory compliance, and building customer trust, as well as how to integrate AI into their operations. The bill also mandates that SBDCs conduct outreach to small businesses about AI. The term "artificial intelligence" will be defined as it is in the National Artificial Intelligence Initiative Act of 2020. Importantly, the bill states that no additional funds are authorized to carry out these new requirements.
