Overview

This bill amends Pennsylvania’s laws regarding state-licensed professions to address the use of artificial intelligence. It defines ‘artificial intelligence’ and ‘generative artificial intelligence’ and requires licensing boards to create rules governing how licensees can use AI in their work. These rules must include requirements for disclosure to patients, oversight of AI-generated outputs, and limitations on AI’s ability to independently perform professional tasks. The bill aims to ensure that AI is used responsibly and ethically within the scope of licensed professions.
