 IN SENATE

 May 15, 2026
 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. GONZALEZ -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Codes

 AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to requiring policing
 agencies to conduct an inventory of, and develop a publicly-available
 policy for, any artificial intelligence used to aid criminal investi-
 gations

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. The executive law is amended by adding a new section 837-ww
 2 to read as follows:
 3 § 837-ww. Use of artificial intelligence by policing agencies. 1. For
 4 the purposes of this section:
 5 (a) "Artificial intelligence" or "AI" means a machine-based technology
 6 that can infer from the input it receives how to generate outputs,
 7 including content, decisions, predictions, or recommendations.
 8 (b) "Covered AI" means any AI used to aid a law enforcement investi-
 9 gation, including by generating a lead for further investigation or
 10 corroboration, as well as generative AI technologies used to write or
 11 materially aid in writing police reports or other records relating to a
 12 criminal investigation.
 13 (i) Covered AI includes, but is not limited to, technologies that
 14 perform biometric identification; forensic DNA phenotyping and probabi-
 15 listic genotyping; forensic investigative genetic genealogy; cross-cam-
 16 era tracking; vehicle surveillance or tracking including automated
 17 license plate readers; anomaly detection; gunshot detection; person-
 18 based predictive policing; risk scoring; behavioral analysis; sentiment
 19 analysis; convoy analysis; fraud detection; analysis of financial trans-
 20 actions; social network or social media analysis; location analysis,
 21 data fusion and intelligence analysis platforms.
 22 (ii) Covered AI does not mean AI that is used for administrative tasks
 23 that do not materially impact investigations, such as productivity and
 24 document management tools, or generative AI technologies used to check
 25 spelling or grammar.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.

 S. 10425 2

 1 (iii) "Use" means operating or accessing a covered AI or data derived
 2 therefrom, regardless of whether such system or data is owned by the
 3 police agency, another public agency, or a private individual or entity.
 4 2. (a) At least ninety days prior to the use of a new covered AI prod-
 5 uct, the law enforcement agency shall publish a publicly available
 6 disclosure. For covered AI products already in use, the agency shall
 7 publish a disclosure within one hundred eighty days of the effective
 8 date of this section. Each disclosure shall, at a minimum, include:
 9 (i) the name of each system, including the vendor and product name, if
 10 applicable;
 11 (ii) a brief description of each system's capabilities and limita-
 12 tions;
 13 (iii) a brief description of the type or types of data inputs each
 14 system uses and outputs it produces; and
 15 (iv) a brief description of authorized and unauthorized uses for each
 16 system; and
 17 (v) copies of all internal validation summaries and internal perform-
 18 ance checks for each system.
 19 (b) AI system inventory information is publicly available in accord-
 20 ance with this subdivision if it is posted conspicuously on the law
 21 enforcement agency's website in a text-searchable format and is accessi-
 22 ble at no cost. If the police agency employs fewer than ten full-time
 23 sworn officers and does not maintain a website, such informa
