The RAISE Act establishes safety requirements for developers of powerful artificial intelligence models, known as "frontier models." A frontier model is defined as one trained with over 10^26 computational operations (costing more than $100 million) or a distilled version costing over $5 million. Large developers must implement documented safety protocols to prevent "critical harm," defined as events causing death, serious injury to 100+ people, or $1 billion in damages from AI misuse. The bill also defines key terms like "safety incident" and outlines remedies for violations, focusing on risk mitigation rather than restricting AI development.

This bill (A 428) protects New York users of paid online dating services by setting clear consumer safeguards. It limits subscription contracts to $1,000 total (with exceptions for short-term plans), bans requiring forced add-on services (like grooming), and guarantees a minimum number of matches per month for paid plans over $25. Users gain the right to cancel without penalty if matches aren't delivered for two months, receive a refund (minus a small fee), and get their personal data deleted or returned upon cancellation. The law directly affects all paid online dating platforms operating in New York, ensuring transparency and reducing deceptive practices.
This bill amends New York's penal law and related statutes to explicitly include "medical information" and "health insurance information" in the legal definition of "personal identifying information." It defines medical information as details about an individual's medical history or treatment, and health insurance information as policy numbers, subscriber IDs, or claims history. These changes mean that identity theft involving such sensitive health data will now be covered under existing identity theft laws, which previously did not explicitly include these categories. The bill also removes outdated definitions from related laws to streamline the updated framework.
Directs that state agencies require that procurement of end point devices be consistent with any relevant standards, guidelines, or guidance developed as part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework.
Relates to the disclosure of automated employment decision-making tools; requires the office of information technology services to maintain an artificial intelligence inventory; provides that the use of artificial intelligence systems shall not affect the existing rights of employees pursuant to an existing collective bargaining agreement, or the existing representational relationships among employee organizations or the bargaining relationships between the employer and an employee organization.
