What it does
The bill would ban companies from using AI systems in a way that discriminates based on race, sex, disability, age, and other protected traits when deciding things like jobs, housing, credit, health care, and education. Companies building or using these systems would have to test them for bias before deployment, assess their impact yearly, publicly disclose how they work, and let people opt out for a human decision or appeal an outcome. The Federal Trade Commission, state attorneys general, and individuals could enforce these rules in court.
