## Overview

Utah enacted the Artificial Intelligence Policy Act (SB 149) in March 2024, effective 1 May 2024, the first US state law on generative-AI disclosure: businesses must tell consumers when they are interacting with generative AI if asked, and regulated occupations must disclose proactively. It created the Office of Artificial Intelligence Policy and a learning-laboratory (sandbox) programme, amended in 2025 (SB 226 and SB 332) to narrow disclosure to "high-risk" interactions and extend the sunset, plus HB 452 on mental-health chatbots.
