  • SB 26-189 repeals and reenacts Colorado's 2024 AI Act with rules for automated decision-making technology (ADMT) in consequential decisions, including employment.
  • From Jan 1, 2027, developers must give deployers technical documentation on intended uses, data, limitations and human review.
  • Deployers must give clear notice at the point of interaction and, within 30 days of an adverse decision, a plain-language description of the ADMT's role.
  • Consumers may request their data, correction, and meaningful human review of adverse decisions.
  • The Attorney General enforces it; before Jan 1, 2030 there is a 60-day notice and cure period. No new private right of action.
