HB 8052

As introduced: - Establishes strict liability for developers of artificial intelligence systems for injuries caused by the system's conduct, where such conduct would be considered negligent, an intentional tort, or a crime if performed by a human. - Creates a rebuttable presumption that an AI system meets the mental state requirement for a tort if a human acting similarly would have possessed that mental state. - Provides an absolute defense to liability if a developer proves the AI system met the standard of care applicable to a human performing the same function.
