New York has introduced two new laws and launched a government training program focused on artificial intelligence (AI) to promote the safe and responsible use of this technology.
Under these new regulations, companies that fail to comply may face fines, ensuring accountability and adherence to AI safety standards.
Additionally, operators of AI companions are now required to identify signs of self-harm or suicidal thoughts among users, highlighting the state’s commitment to user well-being and mental health awareness.
These measures demonstrate New York’s proactive approach to managing the impact of AI on society while protecting its residents.
