Requires developers to disclose training data for generative AI systems publicly by January 1, 2026, and for each subsequent release. Exempts AI systems focused on security, aircraft operation, and national defense. Specifies detailed documentation requirements for datasets, including sources, content types, and modifications.
Analysis summaries, actor details, and coverage mappings were LLM-classified and may contain errors.
This is a binding California state statute with mandatory disclosure requirements, specific compliance deadlines, and legal enforceability through state law mechanisms.
The document has minimal coverage of risk domains, with primary focus on transparency and documentation requirements rather than specific AI risks. Coverage is limited to subdomain 7.4 (Lack of transparency) with a score of 3, as the bill directly addresses transparency through mandatory training data disclosure. No other risk subdomains are substantially addressed.
This legislation applies broadly across all sectors where generative AI systems are developed and made publicly available to Californians. The bill governs AI developers regardless of their industry sector, with specific exemptions only for security-focused systems, aircraft operation systems, and national defense systems. The Information sector is most directly governed as it includes AI developers and technology companies.
The document primarily covers the 'Collect and Process Data' and 'Build and Use Model' stages through its detailed requirements for documenting training data. It also addresses 'Deploy' stage through disclosure requirements before public availability, and implicitly touches on 'Operate and Monitor' through ongoing disclosure requirements for substantial modifications.
The document explicitly focuses on generative artificial intelligence systems and services, with detailed definitions provided. It does not mention frontier AI, general purpose AI, task-specific AI, foundation models, predictive AI, or specific compute thresholds. It does address open-weight models implicitly through public domain and copyright considerations.
California State Legislature; The people of the State of California
The document is a California Assembly Bill enacted by the California State Legislature, as indicated by the opening phrase 'The people of the State of California do enact as follows' and the bill designation 'California Assembly Bill 2013 (2024)'.
The document does not explicitly name an enforcement agency. However, as this bill adds provisions to the California Civil Code, enforcement would typically fall to California state authorities, potentially including the California Attorney General's office and courts through civil litigation mechanisms.
The document does not explicitly specify a monitoring body. The transparency requirements create a self-executing disclosure mechanism where developers must post documentation publicly, enabling public oversight. Formal monitoring would likely be conducted by California state regulatory authorities.
Developers of generative artificial intelligence systems or services made publicly available to Californians
The bill explicitly targets developers of generative AI systems or services, defined as persons, partnerships, state or local government agencies, or corporations that design, code, produce, or substantially modify AI systems for public use.
