On March 13, 2024, the Utah governor signed the Artificial Intelligence Policy Act (the Utah AI Act) into law.  This new law—which will directly regulate the private sector’s use of generative AI by imposing disclosure requirements on certain activities and entities—goes into effect on May 1, 2024, less than two months after it became law.  With this development, Utah puts itself at the forefront of state legislative efforts to regulate AI, even as the federal government moves forward on AI and the European Union has passed its own landmark AI Act.
