HARRISBURG \u2013 The House today passed legislation authored by Reps. Jason Ortitay (R-Washington\/Allegheny) and Joe Ciresi (D-Montgomery) to create a campaign to educate Pennsylvanians about the potential benefits and risks of artificial intelligence (AI).\n<\/p>\n

\u201cMany people don\u2019t yet have a full understanding of AI,\u201d said Ortitay, Republican chair of the House Communications and Technology Committee. \u201cAs it is becoming a part of everyday life, this legislation will help improve public awareness. Although AI offers significant benefits, it can also be misused. It\u2019s essential for everyone to know what it can do and how to avoid being misled by false information.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\u201cAI safety starts with informed users,\u201d said Ciresi, Democrat chair of the House Communications and Technology Committee. \u201cAs AI becomes increasingly common in across our daily life, it\u2019s important that we know how to interact with AI safely and responsibly and be educated consumers of online content. Informed public awareness of the risks of AI \u2013 from misinformation and hallucinations, emotional dependency, to potentially harmful advice, and more \u2013 is essential as we enter this new technological age.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

House Bill 2314 would create the Artificial Intelligence Public Education Campaign Act. Within a year from the bill becoming law, the Office of Attorney General (OAG) would conduct a public education campaign to provide information to the general public about AI and improve AI consumer literacy. The OAG would then submit a report to the General Assembly within a year of it beginning to include a summary of the campaign, an assessment of its performance and impact, and recommendations on further action to achieve the public education goals of the campaign.\n<\/p>\n

This legislation also fulfills a recommendation from the Joint State Government Commission\u2019s recent report on artificial intelligence.\n<\/p>\n

The bill now goes to the Senate for its consideration.\n<\/p>\n
