S 2367

AI Accountability and Personal Data Protection Act

High Risk

Creates new compliance requirements or restricts common AI uses. Action needed.

TL;DR

Senator Durbin introduced S 2367, which would require companies using AI for important decisions (like hiring, lending, or healthcare) to explain how their AI works and prove it doesn't discriminate. Companies would need to conduct regular audits of their AI systems, tell people when AI makes decisions about them, and let people opt out of certain AI decisions.

How This Might Impact Your Business

Companies with over $50 million in revenue using AI for employment, credit, housing, healthcare, or insurance decisions must conduct annual bias audits and publish results publicly

Businesses must provide written notice when AI systems make or influence decisions about individuals, including the factors the AI considered

Companies must allow consumers to request human review of AI decisions within 30 days

Violations carry penalties up to $50,000 per incident plus potential private lawsuits

Small businesses under $50 million revenue and companies using only basic rule-based systems are exempt

Implementation deadline would be 18 months after passage, with audit requirements starting 24 months after passage

What Should You Do

1

Map all AI tools your company uses for hiring, lending, insurance underwriting, or customer decisions

2

Budget for annual third-party AI audits (estimated $25,000-100,000 per system based on complexity)

3

Review customer communication templates to add required AI disclosure language

4

Contact Senate Judiciary Committee members if your industry has specific concerns (next committee review expected Q1 2024)

5

Start documenting your AI decision-making processes now, even if the bill hasn't passed
