Technology Committee has approved the bill, positioning it for further review by the Senate.<\/li>\n<li>The bill seeks to outlaw AI chatbots that simulate the practice of licensed professions and establishes conditions for private litigation when users suffer harm from relying on the chatbot\u2019s advice.<\/li>\n<li>Proprietors of chatbots would be required to include clear disclaimers indicating that users are interacting with an AI system rather than a human professional.<\/li>\n<li>If enacted, the bill would increase the risk of litigation for companies embedding AI chatbots in their services, as it provides a clear route for users seeking compensation and attorneys\u2019 fees.<\/li>\n<li>The regulations, if passed, could serve as a model for other states\u2019 similar legislation and highlight the necessity for clear regulation of AI in professions where licensing is required.<\/li>\n<li>Uncertainty exists regarding the definition of \u201csubstantive\u201d advice and liability allocation, which could lead to ambiguities in enforcement and potential legal challenges.<\/li>\n<li>Companies using AI chatbots are advised to monitor this legislative activity and prepare their operations, insurance, and incident response plans to meet potential future regulations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York Legislators Take Aim at Artificial Intelligence Chatbots https:\/\/natlawreview.com\/article\/new-york-moves-curb-ai-impersonation-licensed-professionals Publish Date: 2026-03-19 10:08:00 Source&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":197340,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/natlawreview.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/article_image\/public\/2026-03\/Artificial%20Intelligence%20AI%20Brain%20IP%20Tech-448974829_3.jpg.webp?itok=qMlBQSPe","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20],"class_list":["post-197339","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197339"}],"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=197339"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197339\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":197341,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197339\/revisions\/197341"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/197340"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=197339"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=197339"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=197339"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
