Today, we are formally endorsing four additional California bills that have passed the legislature and are headed to Governor Newsom. Together, they address complementary parts of the AI-safety ecosystem. SB 1119 would require age assurance, risk assessments, independent audits, parental controls, and safeguards against harmful content for children and teens using companion chatbots.
