Last year, experts at The Software Alliance, also known as BSA, predicted there would be a wave of state artificial intelligence legislation this year, similar to state efforts to regulate data privacy. While the number of AI bills introduced this year has spiked, several experts said that work hasn’t completely overshadowed conversations about regulating data privacy.

Craig Albright, senior vice president of U.S. government relations at BSA, told StateScoop that this is evidence his organization’s 2024 report detailing the predicted of a wave of AI legislation this year was accurate. And, he said, it seems that despite states mirroring their all-out efforts to get data privacy regulated with AI, it doesn’t appear that work is overshadowing data privacy legislation in the states.
Albright pointed out that what counts as AI legislation could be anything that includes the term “AI” and that because there are different types of AI, there were different types of bills introduced for each type. When it comes to the number of laws actually passed — not just introduced — at the state level, it seems that the wave hasn’t broken just yet.
