In one paragraph

Illinois' SB1366 would create the State Government AI Act. The Department of Innovation and Technology would have to adopt rules before January 1, 2028 on the development, procurement, deployment, use and assessment of AI by State agencies, and from January 1, 2028 agencies could not deploy or use AI unless those rules permit it. Filed January 29, 2025 and referred to the Senate Assignments Committee; it has not passed either house.

Plain-English summary, written with AI assistance. The official text controls.

What it means for business

None yet: the bill has not been enacted. It would impose no duties on businesses; it would govern State agencies' use of AI, which could affect vendors selling AI to the State.

Key provisions

  1. Would require the Department of Innovation and Technology to adopt rules before January 1, 2028 on development, procurement, deployment, use and assessment of AI by State agencies
  2. Would bar State agencies from deploying or using AI beginning January 1, 2028 unless permitted by the Department's rules
  3. Would require each agency to file an annual AI impact assessment report with the Department by July 1, starting July 1, 2028
  4. Would require the Department to report on AI's impact on State government to the General Assembly and Governor by January 1, 2029 and each January 1 after
  5. Would define AI as technology that enables computers and machines to simulate human learning, comprehension, problem solving, decision making, creativity and autonomy; takes effect upon becoming law
