Relating to the disclosure and use of artificial intelligence.

HB 5496 requires businesses using artificial intelligence in Texas to be transparent with residents. It mandates that companies implement industry best practices, provide tools for individuals to detect AI use, explain AI-driven decisions, and prevent biased or discriminatory outcomes. The law directly affects businesses offering goods, services, social media, political ads, or financial services to Texas residents. Violations would be treated as deceptive trade practices under existing law, with the bill taking effect September 1, 2025.
