In one paragraph
Illinois's HB 5639 (103rd General Assembly) would have amended Section 1-80 of the Department of Innovation and Technology Act, which creates the Generative AI and Natural Language Processing Task Force, so that two members (rather than one) are appointed by the Speaker of the House, one of whom serves as a co-chairperson. It was not passed before the 103rd General Assembly ended (Session Sine Die, January 7, 2025).
