MINOR

The bill was amended to streamline the legislative process by removing redundant introductory text and reorganizing the statutory sections. The most significant substantive change is the redefinition of 'Artificial intelligence' to explicitly reference the existing definition in the General Business Law, ensuring consistency across state laws. Additionally, the act's effective date was changed from 'immediately' to 'January 14, 2026,' delaying its implementation.

Scope change

The bill's scope regarding covered employers and displacement thresholds remains unchanged, but the definition of 'Artificial intelligence' is now tied to the General Business Law rather than being defined inline.

TECHNICAL

Removed the committee discharge status and redundant legislative findings text that was previously included in the bill header.

DEFINITION

Changed the definition of 'Artificial intelligence' to reference section 1700 of the General Business Law instead of providing a detailed inline definition.

TIMELINE

Changed the effective date of the act from 'immediately' to 'January 14, 2026.'
