Globally, US state-level and EU requirements are leading the way in trying to spot AI issues and shape the compliance horizon for AI developers, deployers, and in-scope businesses.

Into that mix, a Dec 11 White House executive order seeks to reduce what it characterizes as state-law obstacles to national AI policy by, among other means, federal challenges to certain state AI regimes - especially California and Colorado. Let’s see what the Trump administration is upset about:

For California: Nikki A. Docherty (Hoge Fenton Jones & Appel) will outline California’s emerging framework for advanced and generative AI, focusing on SB 53 and the California AI Transparency Act (as amended by SB 52 / AB 853). Who is in scope, what are the headline transparency and safety obligations, and what do these measures mean for companies using these powerful models?

For Colorado: Nate Mortensen (Foster Graham Milstein & Calisher) will walk through Colorado’s SB 24-205 (the Colorado Artificial Intelligence Act), with an emphasis on “high-risk” AI in employment and other consequential decisions, required risk management and notice, and steps for employers and vendors.

We’ll close with a 20-minute Q&A and discussion.
