State Sen. Jerry McNerney (D-Pleasanton) announced Senate Bill 7, which he dubbed the "No Robo Bosses Act." McNerney said the measure aims to regulate automated decision-making systems (ADS) powered by AI.
McNerney stressed that the measure does not prohibit ADS. "AI must remain a tool controlled by humans, not the other way around," he added.
The proposal would also bar such systems from predictive behavior analysis based on a worker's personal information that results in an "adverse action" against a worker. Systems would also be barred from obtaining or inferring a worker's immigration status, ancestral history, health history, credit history or other statuses protected by state law.
In McNerney's statement, the lawmaker cited examples of software prioritizing efficiency and cost-savings over worker health and safety, including gig-nursing apps that set hours and wages without human oversight, along with software mistakenly firing people from their jobs.
If approved, Senate Bill 7 would be the first law of its kind in the country.
The senator's office did not say when the measure would be considered in the legislature.
