About the Course
Introduction
This webinar will examine state artificial intelligence (AI) laws, with a focus on the California Transparency in Frontier Artificial Intelligence Act, Texas Responsible Artificial Intelligence Governance Act, and Colorado Artificial Intelligence Act, all becoming effective in 2026, and the New York Responsible AI Safety and Education Act, becoming effective in 2027.
Description
As companies operationalize AI across business functions, counsel will increasingly be asked to define which systems fall in scope, design defensible governance and documentation, and implement disclosure, risk assessment, and escalation workflows that can withstand state scrutiny. This program will discuss these new statutory obligations and navigate what they will require from corporate counsel.
The program will also address the Dec. 11, 2025 Executive Order, Ensuring a National Policy Framework for Artificial Intelligence, including how it contemplates federal agency actions and litigation posture that could challenge or preempt certain state AI laws, and what that uncertainty means for compliance planning.
Listen as our panel provides practical guidance for building an AI compliance program that addresses California, Texas, New York, and Colorado requirements while anticipating possible federal to state friction and enforcement risk.
