In one paragraph

Illinois's HB 3506 (104th General Assembly) would create the Artificial Intelligence Safety and Security Protocol Act. As introduced, developers would publish a safety and security protocol, publish risk assessment reports at least every 90 days, and obtain an annual third-party compliance audit, with civil penalties. House Committee Amendment No. 1 narrows this to 'large developers' and adds whistleblower protections. Re-referred to Rules April 11, 2025.

What it means for business

Not law. If enacted, AI developers (large developers under the committee amendment) would have to publish safety protocols and risk reports, undergo annual audits and protect whistleblowers.

Key provisions

  1. As introduced, a developer would produce, implement, follow and conspicuously publish a safety and security protocol
  2. No less than every 90 days, a developer would publish a risk assessment report
  3. At least once each calendar year, a developer would retain a reputable third-party auditor to report on compliance with its protocol
  4. Sets rules on redaction of sensitive information, whistleblower protections and civil penalties
  5. Committee Amendment No. 1 changes 'developer' to 'large developer'; a large developer with employees in Illinois could not adopt or enforce policies preventing an employee from disclosing information to government, law enforcement or supervisors when the employee believes in good faith an activity poses critical risk
  6. Adopted amendment and Do Pass as Amended in committee 7-4 on March 20, 2025; re-referred to Rules April 11, 2025
