This bill establishes a prohibition on the manufacture, import, sale, or distribution of specific products designed for children. Specifically, it targets children's toys and child care articles that integrate an artificial intelligence chatbot as part of their design. This measure aims to prevent the inclusion of interactive AI conversational technologies in products intended for young users. The prohibition will become effective 180 days following the enactment of the Act. Any violation of this provision will be treated as a violation under section 19 of the Consumer Product Safety Act, allowing for established enforcement mechanisms. The bill defines "artificial intelligence," "machine learning," "chatbot," "child care article," and "children's toy" by referencing existing statutes to ensure clarity and consistency.
