JB Pritzker plans to sign a groundbreaking piece of legislation that will establish a regulatory framework for artificial intelligence (AI) developers in Illinois.<\/li>\n<li>The bill, which passed the General Assembly with significant bipartisan support and backing from AI companies, would make Illinois the first state requiring independent third-party audits for large AI developers.<\/li>\n<li>The legislation would set new standards for transparency, safety, and accountability for top AI firms, requiring them to disclose potential catastrophic risks and the measures in place to mitigate such risks.<\/li>\n<li>Companies would also be obligated to report \u201ccritical safety incidents\u201d to the state, retain third-party auditors, and offer whistleblower protections for employees concerned about public safety hazards.<\/li>\n<li>The legislation comes amid a federal inaction on AI regulation, prompting the Illinois General Assembly to fill what some view as a regulatory void.<\/li>\n<li>Other proposed bills in the legislative session target AI-related issues including rent pricing, event ticket purchasing limits, detection of suicidal signs in users, and the use of AI in education.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Illinois set to OK regulatory framework for big AI companies https:\/\/www.chicagotribune.com\/2026\/05\/28\/illinois-artificial-intelligence-audit-bill\/ Publish Date: 2026-05-28 10:23:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":221754,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.chicagotribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/CTC-L-Legis-session-062726-03_263033827.jpg?w=1024&h=683","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20],"class_list":["post-221753","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\/221753"}],"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=221753"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221753\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":221755,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221753\/revisions\/221755"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/221754"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=221753"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=221753"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=221753"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
