This affects large language models, generative AI for realistic media, and advanced medical or scientific AI.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Key Obligations<\/strong>: Covered \u201clarge developers\u201d must implement and publish safety protocols, assess risk of critical harm, and report certain incidents to the New York Attorney General within 72 hours. It has enforcement provisions, but no private right of action. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Effective Date<\/strong>: The RAISE Act is scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2027, mandating sufficient preparation time for businesses dealing with frontier AI technologies.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Veto of NYHIPA<\/strong>: Governor Hochul vetoed the New York Health Information Privacy Act (NYHIPA), which would have broadened health data protections significantly beyond current federal requirements. It included detailed consent requirements and strong individual data access and deletion rights.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Implications for Businesses<\/strong>: For firms developing or using sophisticated AI, there is a need for strengthened governance and risk management. For those handling health-related data, especially outside of HIPAA, monitoring legislative changes and evaluating compliance with potential future regulations is essential.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Strategic Preparation<\/strong>: Overall, New York\u2019s legislative session signals an intent to lead in AI and privacy governance. Companies should proactively prepare for evolving regulations through strategic planning and updates to policies and operations.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recent New York State AI and Privacy Legislation https:\/\/natlawreview.com\/article\/recent-developments-artificial-intelligence-and-privacy-legislation-new-york-state Publish Date: 2026-01-04 13:17:00 Source Domain:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":174451,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/natlawreview.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/article_image\/public\/2026-01\/New%20York%20City%20NYC%20NY%20Privacy%20Data%20Cybersecurity-476228113.jpg.webp?itok=LwsalzIh","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[19],"class_list":["post-174450","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-generative-ai"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174450"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=174450"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174450\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":174452,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174450\/revisions\/174452"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/174451"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=174450"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=174450"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=174450"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
