A Resolution directing the Joint State Government Commission to establish an advisory committee to conduct a study on the field of artificial intelligence and its impact and potential future impact in Pennsylvania.
This Pennsylvania House resolution directs the Joint State Government Commission to create an advisory committee and conduct a comprehensive study on artificial intelligence. The proposed committee includes representatives from various state agencies, labor unions, academic institutions, and technical experts to examine AI's benefits, risks, and potential impacts on the state. The study will assess how AI is currently used, evaluate its effects on employment and disinformation, and propose regulations for its responsible development within Pennsylvania government and society. Ultimately, the commission must submit a report with recommendations on whether to establish a permanent oversight body and how to allocate rights between workers and employers regarding AI implementation.
