Plain-language summary
Creates the Artificial Intelligence Safety Act in Illinois, shielding developers of frontier AI models from liability for critical harms if they did not act intentionally or recklessly and they publish a safety and security protocol and transparency report. Developers are also deemed compliant if bound by European Union safety requirements or a qualifying federal agreement, and the Act ceases to apply once overlapping federal requirements take effect.
