SB 315

Illinois just enacted SB 315, the Artificial Intelligence Safety Measures Act, sponsored by Senators Mary Edly-Allen and Sue Rezin. It requires the largest AI developers (companies with over $500M in revenue training massive 'frontier' models above 10^26 compute operations) to publish safety frameworks, report critical incidents within 72 hours, and undergo annual third-party audits. Penalties reach $1M per first violation and $3M for repeat violations, enforced solely by the Illinois Attorney General.

SB 3114

Illinois SB 3114, introduced by Sen. Dave Koehler with broad bipartisan support, would require health insurers to disclose when they use AI or algorithms to 'downcode' medical claims (paying providers less than what was billed by reassigning codes). Insurers would have to explain the downcoding decision, identify whether AI was involved, and give providers a way to appeal.

SB 2909

Illinois SB 2909, led by Senator Christopher Belt, would prohibit school districts from using artificial intelligence as the sole basis for evaluating teacher performance. AI can still assist in evaluations, but a qualified human evaluator must make the final call. The bill has passed both chambers and is headed to the governor.

SB 3263

Illinois SB 3263, introduced by Senator Mary Edly-Allen and seven co-sponsors, would require AI-generated content to carry embedded provenance data so people can tell what was made or modified by AI. The bill is currently parked in committee (re-referred to Assignments), meaning it has not advanced yet but signals Illinois lawmakers want mandatory AI content labeling.
