United States of America: Bill on Artificial Intelligence Consumer Protections (SB25-318) including non-discrimination requirement was introduced to Colorado Senate

On 28 April 2025, the Bill on Artificial Intelligence Consumer Protections (SB25-318) was introduced to the Colorado Senate, updating the state's approach to algorithmic discrimination in AI systems. The Bill redefines “algorithmic discrimination” to align it explicitly with violations of local, state, or federal anti-discrimination law, including the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act and federal civil rights statutes. This clarification centres enforcement on legally recognised discrimination, creating a more targeted framework for identifying biased outcomes. It also eliminates the duty of developers and deployers to exercise "reasonable care" and removes the requirement to notify the attorney general of foreseeable risks arising from intended uses of high-risk systems. Developers are further exempt from certain disclosure obligations if they meet thresholds for investment, revenue, years of operation, and scale of system deployment.
