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.
Oregon has not enacted a comprehensive AI law. Its one binding AI statute, SB 1571 (2024), requires disclosure of AI-generated 'synthetic media' in campaign communications (up to $10,000 per instance). An AI Task Force report and 2024 Attorney General guidance apply existing consumer-protection and privacy law to AI but are not new binding rules.
