In one paragraph
Illinois's HB 4836 (103rd General Assembly) would have added Section 5-735 to the Civil Administrative Code so that State agency and State-funded AI systems must follow the NIST AI Risk Management Framework. Agencies and entities deploying State-funded AI would have to submit NIST-based algorithmic impact assessments to the General Assembly, the Auditor General and the Department of Innovation and Technology. It was not passed before the 103rd General Assembly ended (Session Sine Die, January 7, 2025).
