Nevada SB 263 makes AI-generated child sexual abuse material a crime. It defines "computer-generated child pornography" to include altered depictions of real children and visual representations created by artificial intelligence or other computer technology that are indistinguishable from a minor. Preparing, advertising or distributing such material, and possessing it, are now covered by the existing child-pornography offenses, and a second or subsequent distribution offense becomes a category A felony.

Nevada SB 213 brings AI deepfake nudes within the intimate-image law. "Intimate image" now includes photorealistic, digital, computer and computer-generated images that a reasonable person would believe show an identifiable person nude or in sexual conduct, and the public-figure exclusion is removed. Knowingly distributing such an image, made so it would be believed real, without the person's consent and with intent to harass, harm or terrorize, is a category D felony. Minors are exempt and offenders do not have to register as sex offenders.
Makes various changes relating to health. (BDR 34-674)
Nevada's AB 406 bars public schools from using AI to perform school counselors', psychologists' and social workers' functions relating to pupils' mental health, and has the Department of Education develop a policy for AI use by staff providing those services. AI providers may not offer AI systems in Nevada specifically programmed to provide what would be professional mental or behavioral health care if done by a person, or claim an AI system can provide such care; civil penalty up to $15,000 per violation. Licensed providers may not use AI in giving care directly to patients, except for administrative support. Approved June 5, 2025 (Chapter 283); effective July 1, 2025.
Revises provisions relating to vehicles. (BDR 43-316)
Nevada's SB 382 (2025) would have let trailers used primarily for farm purposes be registered for five years (paying all five years of fees and taxes up front) and would have let an autonomous vehicle tested or operated on a Nevada highway have automated driving system marker lamps meeting SAE J3134 and SAE J578. It passed the Senate 21-0 on April 22 and, as amended, the Assembly 42-0 on June 2, 2025; the record then shows 'No further action taken' (June 3) and no enactment, so it died with the 2025 session.

Nevada AB 73 adds NRS 294A.3493. A campaign communication paid for by a person, candidate or committee that supports or opposes a candidate or party and includes synthetic media (an image, audio or video of a person intentionally manipulated with AI, generative AI or GAN techniques so it looks real but gives a fundamentally different impression) must clearly state "This (image/video/audio) has been manipulated." Video must show it throughout; audio must say it at the start, end and every 2 minutes. A depicted candidate can sue for an injunction. Broadcasters, platforms and satire/parody are exempt. Effective Jan. 1, 2026.
Revises provisions relating to artificial intelligence. (BDR 36-393)
Nevada's AB 325 requires the state emergency management plan and each emergency operations plan adopted by a state or local governmental agency to include provisions ensuring that final decisions on emergency response planning and on allocating resources in an emergency are made by a natural person, not by artificial intelligence. A public utility may not make a final decision on whether to reduce or shut down utility service in response to a disaster or emergency based solely on AI. Approved May 30, 2025 (Chapter 123); effective October 1, 2025.
Revises provisions relating to education. (BDR 34-525)
Nevada's AB 531 (2025) would have required the Department of Education to create an attendance dashboard, had the Superintendent appoint a task force on a rubric comparing Nevada pupils' performance with other states, and had the Superintendent appoint a committee on the use of artificial intelligence in education to recommend legislation by August 1 of each even-numbered year. It also moved report dates and State Board terms. Under Joint Standing Rule 14.3.1 it was barred from further action on April 12, 2025.
Revises provisions relating to health insurance. (BDR 57-238)
Nevada's AB 295 (2025) would have set prior authorization deadlines for health carriers (5 days non-urgent, 48 hours urgent, replacing 20 days) and required carriers using AI or automated decision tools for prior authorization to notify insureds in writing, and barred using AI to make adverse determinations or reduce or modify approved care unless a physician (or dentist) independently reviews the request. Carriers would report annually. Under Joint Standing Rule 14.3.1 no further action was allowed after April 12, 2025, so it died.
Revises provisions relating to transportation network companies. (BDR 58-935)
Nevada's SB 288 lets a transportation network company (TNC) contract with monitored autonomous vehicle providers, who own and operate autonomous vehicles with an employed monitor physically present at all times, to give rides through the TNC's app largely on the same terms as drivers. Providers are liable in tort like drivers and must carry at least $1,500,000 of TNC insurance while operating; the TNC must hold a Transportation Authority permit and inspect the vehicles. Local governments generally may not tax or charge fees on these providers or rides. Approved June 10, 2021 (Chapter 550); effective on approval.
