AB 325 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions relating to artificial intelligence. (BDR 36-393)

AB 325 requires state and local emergency management plans to ensure final decisions about emergency response and resource allocation are made by people, not artificial intelligence. It also prohibits public utilities from using AI alone to decide whether to cut power or water during disasters. The bill defines "artificial intelligence" as systems that make predictions or decisions influencing environments based on human objectives. These rules apply to all government emergency plans and utility service decisions during declared disasters or emergencies.
