Louisiana HB791 regulates artificial intelligence chatbots, ensuring data privacy, security, and transparency for users.

HB791, known as The People's A.I. Act, establishes regulations for artificial intelligence chatbots in Louisiana. It mandates that chatbot providers obtain affirmative consent before processing personal data for chatbot outputs, except when necessary to fulfill a user's request. The bill prohibits processing chat logs for advertising, training purposes, or profiling without consent, especially if the user is a minor. It also bans selling chat logs and retaining them for more than ten years unless required by law.
