Bill overview
The Chatbot Act aims to protect children and teens by requiring family accounts for children using AI chatbots, mandating verifiable parental consent for teens, and establishing transparency requirements. It establishes rules around data collection, targeted advertising, and parental controls, seeking to limit the potential risks associated with children’s interactions with these technologies. The bill also directs a study on the impact of chatbots on children’s social and emotional well-being and requires a GAO report on the effectiveness of the legislation and recommendations for improvement.
