Connecticut
AI Policy Overview
Lawmakers in Connecticut have signaled that they intend to take a deliberate, measured approach to AI regulation through a 2023 law (CT SB 1103) establishing an Office of Artificial Intelligence as well as a task force to study AI and develop an AI bill of rights. The working group has until February 1, 2024, to produce a report with their recommendations on the use of AI in state government and the private sector. Additionally, the law requires the Department of Administrative Services to inventory AI systems in use by any state agency by December 31, 2023, and annually thereafter.
In February 2024, the AI Task Force issued its final report that issues several recommendations, many of which have already been incorporated into lawmakers’ comprehensive AI legislation (CT SB 2, which we analyzed here).
