Key Requirement
Prohibits developing or deploying AI for intentional behavioral manipulation causing harm, unlawful discrimination, and unlawful synthetic media; applies to businesses and state agencies. Enforced exclusively by the Texas Attorney General with a 60-day cure period.
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.
