Use of Artificial Intelligence by State Agencies
SB 146 requires Florida’s Digital Service to study how state agencies use artificial intelligence (AI), including which agencies use AI, why they use it, and the associated costs. The study must be completed by March 1, 2027, and reported to the Governor and Legislature. This bill does not change current AI use but mandates a formal inventory to inform future policy decisions. It directly affects all Florida state agencies using AI and the Florida Digital Service, which must conduct the study. The bill focuses on gathering factual data, not implementing new AI regulations.
