Confidentiality for Artificial Intelligence Communications

This bill would create a new rule in Arizona that makes conversations with artificial intelligence (AI) confidential in the same way as private talks with licensed professionals like lawyers, doctors, or therapists. If you use an AI system to ask for advice—on legal, medical, mental health, or other sensitive topics—your discussions would be protected and generally could not be used as evidence in court cases, police investigations, or lawsuits. This means companies running AI systems would be required to keep these conversations private, much like professionals do with their clients.
