Referred to the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology.
This bill directs the National Institute of Standards and Technology to create a pilot program that develops voluntary disclosure standards for companies using artificial intelligence systems. The pilot program must be established within one year and will evaluate how private businesses can inform their users about AI-generated content and direct interactions with AI systems, drawing on existing consumer product labeling models. The NIST Director must complete the pilot program and submit a report to Congress within 180 days after completion, including findings on whether these disclosure approaches are feasible and useful, along with any recommendations for further action. The bill requires consultation with federal agencies, private sector companies of various sizes, civil society groups, and academic institutions during the development process. This legislation focuses on establishing voluntary, non-mandatory standards rather than legal requirements, allowing companies to adopt disclosure practices on their own terms.
