NY A08110: Sets rules and procedures for the admissibility of evidence created or processed by artificial intelligence. Verified

Bill A08110, introduced in the New York Assembly, proposes amendments to the criminal procedure law and civil practice law regarding the admissibility of evidence created or processed by artificial intelligence. Under the proposed Section 60.80 of the criminal procedure law, AI-created evidence is inadmissible in criminal proceedings unless it is substantially supported by independent and admissible evidence, and the proponent demonstrates the AI's reliability and accuracy. Similarly, Section 4551 of the civil practice law outlines that AI-processed evidence in civil proceedings must meet the same standards. The bill defines AI-created evidence as new information generated by AI from existing data, while AI-processed evidence involves conclusions drawn by AI that are not reasonably deducible from existing information. The bill mandates expert testimony to validate the AI's use, ensuring it has been rigorously tested and is free from variables that could cause inaccuracies. Courts may protect sensitive information during expert testimony to safeguard trade secrets or law enforcement techniques.
