The rise of artificial intelligence or A.I., has been a frequent topic of discussion in Frankfurt this year, including its influence on student learning, election campaign ads and criminal material like child pornography.

Today, the Artificial Intelligence Task Force met for the last time and published its final report and recommendations for the Kentucky General Assembly, including new legislation to outline standards for use by the state funding for research NRI and urging the federal Government to do more and regulating it.

Democratic Representative Pamela Stephenson suggested an additional recommendation.

Every one of the speakers talked about the impact of AI on our criminal justice system and that we, in fact, many of them went as far as to say that we can't tell whether or not something created by AI is real or not.

And the only solution they offered was we say on our products that it's A.I.

generated, but the crooks don't.

So my question is, could we have someone look at what is the impact of AI on the administration of justice in our Criminal Code?

So we spoke with the attorney general's office and they we asked that question to them When they presented, they felt like at the current time they had the tools they needed.

And we have encouraged them in recommendation number seven to review laws related to individual likeness and continue to continuously collaborate with the General Assembly on issues resulting from advancements.

I think that's kind of captured within that.

What we're saying is if something happens in court, we'll deal with it, but we're not going to be proactive to make sure that people are not falsely accused of A.I., at least do the thinking.

So if it happens, we know our at least do the thinking.

So we know what we know.

And I'm not sure we know what we know in this arena for criminal justice in A.I.. Republican Senator Steven Meredith also recommended the task force, which is a temporary special committee, become permanent.

Neither of the recommendations were formally adopted, but lawmakers said they expect multiple pieces of legislation aimed at regulating A.I.

to be introduced in the 2025 legislative session.
