Michigan Bill Proposes Oversight for State Government's Use of AI
A new bill in Michigan, introduced by state Rep. Jaime Greene, seeks to regulate the use of artificial intelligence (AI) within state government. The legislation aims to address the 'Wild West' nature of AI use by establishing a pilot program to study generative AI applications and ensure proper oversight. The bill proposes the creation of a three-member AI governing board within the state's Department of Technology, Management and Budget. This board would include experts in AI, ethics, and privacy, and would oversee the implementation of AI technologies in a controlled setting. The initiative reflects a growing trend among states to regulate AI use, as evidenced by similar legislative efforts across the country.
