Short title. This Act may be cited as the 5 Consumer Artificial Intelligence Notice Act. 6 Section 5. Definitions. As used in this Act: 7 "Conversational customer service artificial intelligence 8 system" means a product that: 9 (1) uses "artificial intelligence" as defined in 10 Section 2-101 of the Illinois Human Rights Act; and 11 (2) engages in real-time, interactive text-based or 12 voice-based conversation directly with a consumer through 13 a chat, messaging, or voice interface. 14 "Conversational customer service artificial intelligence 15 system" does not include internal business operations, 16 marketing, pricing, analytics activities, or other 17 transactions that do not involve a direct, real-time 18 interaction between the person and the consumer. 19 "Chat interface" means an online interface that allows a 20 consumer to exchange real-time, interactive text messages or 21 voice communications with a conversational artificial 22 intelligence system. 23 "Clear and conspicuous" means that the disclosure appears SB0317 Engrossed - 2 - LRB104 06436 SPS 16472 b 1 as a separate message, either verbally or in writing, in the 2 language that the user is interacting and communicating with 3 the conversational customer service artificial intelligence 4 system at the beginning of the interaction in at least the same 5 font size and color as the consumer's messages if the 6 disclosure is in writing or in a manner that clearly calls 7 attention to the verbal disclosure. 8 "Product" means any tangible object or goods distributed 9 in commerce, including any service provided in connection with 10 the product. 11 Section 10. Requirements. A person who uses a 12 conversational customer service artificial intelligence system 13 in a chat interface to communicate with a consumer shall 14 provide the consumer with a clear and conspicuous disclosure 15 that the consumer is communicating with an automated system 16 and not with a human. 17 Section 15. Application. 18 (a) Nothing in this Act shall be construed to: 19 (1) regulate the use of artificial intelligence that 20 does not interact directly with consumers through a chat 21 interface, including, but not limited to, artificial 22 intelligence used solely for internal analytics, fraud 23 detection, inventory management, pricing, or 24 recommendation systems, or other similar internal SB0317 Engrossed - 3 - LRB104 06436 SPS 16472 b 1 applications; or 2 (2) impose liability on a business entity for the 3 design or outputs of a conversational customer service 4 artificial intelligence developed or provided by a third 5 party if the business entity complies with the disclosure 6 requirements of this Act. 7 (b) The remedies provided by this Act are cumulative and 8 do not preclude any other lawful civil, administrative, or 9 criminal remedy available under State or federal law, 10 including, but not limited to, product liability actions. 11 Section 20. Enforcement. 12 (a) The Attorney General or the State's Attorney of any 13 county in this State may bring an action in the name of the 14 People of this State against any person to restrain and 15 prevent any pattern or practice in violation of Section 10. 16 Any person that may be subject to an action for a violation of 17 Section 10 shall be given at least 7 days advanced notice by 18 the Attorney General or State's Attorney prior to the 19 commencement of an action to enforce Section 10. The person 20 receiving the notice shall have the opportunity to provide an 21 assurance of voluntary compliance to the Attorney General or 22 the State's Attorney and the Attorney General or the State's 23 Attorney may accept the assurance when submitted.
