Key Requirement
The most comprehensive US state AI law. As amended by SB 26-189 (2026) it takes effect January 1, 2027 and centers on transparency/disclosure for consequential automated decisions (the original algorithmic-discrimination duty of care was repealed). Attorney General rulemaking is underway; no final rules have been published yet.
Florida has no comprehensive AI statute, but narrow AI laws are in effect: political ads containing deceptive generative-AI depictions of real people must carry a prescribed AI disclaimer (Fla. Stat. 106.145), and creating AI-generated non-consensual intimate imagery is a felony (HB 757). Existing consumer-protection law may also apply to AI-driven decisions.
