Governor JB Pritzker signed SB 315, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Safety Measures Act, a landmark legislation establishing the nation’s strongest framework for AI safety, transparency, and accountability. The bipartisan law positions Illinois as the national leader by requiring the largest AI developers to identify, disclose, and mitigate risks while providing independent oversight and protections for workers who report safety concerns. The Artificial Intelligence Safety Measures Act establishes a framework requiring developers of the largest advanced AI systems to publicly disclose safety practices, report significant safety incidents, and maintain robust compliance processes. The law also creates confidential reporting channels and whistleblower protections for employees raising AI safety concerns.
