Key Requirement
Massachusetts has not enacted a comprehensive AI law: a bill barring discriminatory automated decision systems in employment and other areas (SD.3007) remains in committee, and the state currently relies on Attorney General Campbell's April 2024 advisory that existing anti-discrimination and consumer-protection laws already apply to AI.
Nevada has not enacted a comprehensive AI law. Narrow AI statutes are in force: AB 406 restricts using AI to deliver mental or behavioral health care (civil penalties up to $15,000 per incident), and AB 271 requires disclosure of AI-generated 'synthetic media' in election and political advertising. Existing consumer-protection laws may also apply to AI-driven decisions.
