Requires boards of education to adopt policy on use of surveillance systems with artificial intelligence capabilities.
This bill requires New Jersey school districts using AI-powered video surveillance systems to create and implement a written policy. The policy must detail the system's benefits and challenges, specify what data is collected, explain how data will be used, outline access plans for the data, and mandate clear signage in monitored areas. School boards must also distribute this policy to all parents and guardians of students. The policy requirements take effect for the first full school year after the bill becomes law.
