New subdivision (d) makes Section 12815.5 self-repealing: it is automatically repealed upon submission of the study report to the Legislature.

Subdivision (b) now requires the Department of General Services to file a notice with the Secretary of State indicating the date the study was submitted, in addition to submitting the report to the Legislature.

The prior version included a separate Section 1 expressing legislative intent to enact future legislation relating to conducting the AI impact study. This section has been removed entirely.

The bill title was updated from 'to add Section 12815.5' to 'to add and repeal Section 12815.5' to reflect the new self-repealing provision.

The fiscal committee designation changed from 'no' to 'yes,' indicating a fiscal impact was identified or acknowledged in this amendment.

The Department of General Services is now required to contract with the University of California, Los Angeles Labor Center to conduct a study evaluating AI's impact on worker well-being, job quality, job types, different populations, and state revenues.

A new deadline requires the department to submit the study findings report to the Legislature on or before June 1, 2027.

The bill now adds Section 12815.5 to the Government Code, giving it codified statutory force rather than existing only as a standalone intent statement.

The bill changed from expressing only the Legislature's intent to enact future legislation into an immediate binding requirement with a specific agency, contractor, and deadline.

The fiscal committee designation changed from 'no' to 'yes,' indicating the amendment introduced potential fiscal implications requiring fiscal review due to the new contractual obligation.
