Enacted US-CA

CA SB 947

Adds Labor Code Part 5.5.5 on employers' use of automated decision systems (ADS). Bars using an ADS to violate labor or civil rights law, to infer an employee's protected status, or to predict and act against workers exercising legal rights; bars relying solely on an ADS for disciplinary or termination decisions and requires human corroboration where an ADS output is the primary basis; and requires a written post-use notice and, on request, a description of the employee's data used. Operative July 1, 2027.

Enacted US-CA

CA AB 2246

Repeals and replaces the California Age-Appropriate Design Code Act. Requires a business providing an online service, product or feature likely to be accessed by children to estimate the age of child users with a reasonable level of certainty or extend child protections to all users, to configure high-privacy defaults, and to take reasonable steps to prevent specified harms including severe psychological harm. Removes the exceptions to the data-collection prohibitions, lets children void contracts entered through manipulative design features, and states that it creates no private right of action.

Enacted US-CA

CA SB 503

Requires developers and deployers of AI clinical decision support systems used by health facilities, clinics and physician practices to make reasonable efforts to identify systems with a known or reasonably foreseeable risk of biased impacts on people with protected characteristics. Developers must mitigate those risks and give deployers an intended-use and risk statement plus documentation on training data, evaluation and data governance; deployers must regularly monitor the systems and mitigate.
