HB4988

FRAUD-ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Introduced·2/4/26
Introduced Text

Illinois HB4988 mandates warning labels on generative artificial intelligence systems to inform users of their limitations.

HB4988 amends the Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act by requiring owners, licensees, or operators of generative artificial intelligence systems to display a warning on the system's user interface. The warning must inform users that artificial intelligence does not think, understand meaning, or have knowledge. It generates responses based on patterns in text data and can produce seemingly coherent answers that may contain errors or inaccuracies. Failure to display the warning each day constitutes a separate violation of the Act.
