A bill for an act requiring community colleges, school districts, and institutions under the control of the state board of regents to adopt policies related to the use of artificial intelligence by students and employees.

HF 2153 requires Iowa community colleges, school districts, and state-controlled higher education institutions to adopt AI usage policies by July 1, 2028. These policies must specify when students and staff may use artificial intelligence during classwork and job duties, include prohibitions on certain uses, and define AI as any machine system generating outputs like content or decisions. Institutions must publish their policies online and submit copies to the state education department or board of regents. The bill applies directly to all students, faculty, and staff at these educational institutions across Iowa.
