Requires artificial intelligence companion operators to provide notifications that users are not communicating with human.

This New Jersey bill requires operators of artificial intelligence companion systems to clearly notify users that they are not communicating with a human. The notification must be provided verbally or in writing at the start of each interaction and repeated at least every three hours. The law defines AI companions as systems that simulate human relationships through personalized conversations, emotional engagement, and sustained dialogue. Operators who fail to provide these notifications face a $15,000 civil penalty for each violation. The bill applies to any business or individual offering AI companions for personal use within the state.
