How Is This Bill Enforced
Verbatim statutory text on the left; plain-language analysis and a per-section checklist on the right. Numbered markers cross-link to the matching checklist row.
(1) "Artificial intelligenceArtificial intelligence"Artificial intelligence" means: a. a system that: (1) performs tasks under varying and unpredictable circumstances without significant human oversight or can learn from experience and improve such performance when exposed to data sets, (2) is developed in any context, including, but not limited to, software or physical hardware, and solves tasks requiring human-like perception, cognition, planning, learning, communication, or physical action, or (3) is designed to: (a) think or act like a human, including, but not limited to, a cognitive architecture or neural network, or (b) act rationally, including, but not limited to, an intelligent software agent or embodied robot that achieves goals using perception, planning, reasoning, learning, communication, decision-making or action, or b. a set of techniques including, but not limited to, machine learning, that is designed to approximate a cognitive task.25 O.S. § 160.1(1)" means: a. a system that: (1) performs tasks under varying and unpredictable circumstances without significant human oversight or can learn from experience and improve such performance when exposed to data sets, (2) is developed in any context, including, but not limited to, software or physical hardware, and solves tasks requiring human-like perception, cognition, planning, learning, communication, or physical action, or (3) is designed to: (a) think or act like a human, including, but not limited to, a cognitive architecture or neural network, or (b) act rationally, including, but not limited to, an intelligent software agent or embodied robot that achieves goals using perception, planning, reasoning, learning, communication, decision-making or action, or b. a set of techniques including, but not limited to, machine learning, that is designed to approximate a cognitive task;
(2) "Real personReal person"Real person" means an actual biological human being as opposed to a system or model meant to emulate human interactions.25 O.S. § 160.1(2)" means an actual biological human being as opposed to a system or model meant to emulate human interactions.
This section establishes the two defined terms used throughout the act. Artificial intelligence is defined broadly to encompass both AI systems (autonomous task performers, learning systems, human-emulating architectures, and rational agents) and AI techniques such as machine learning. Real person is defined as a biological human, contrasted with any system or model emulating human interactions. These definitions serve the operative rights provisions in Section 160.2 but impose no obligations themselves.

(3) 3 The right to know when they are consuming images or text that were generated entirely by an artificial intelligenceArtificial intelligence"Artificial intelligence" means: a. a system that: (1) performs tasks under varying and unpredictable circumstances without significant human oversight or can learn from experience and improve such performance when exposed to data sets, (2) is developed in any context, including, but not limited to, software or physical hardware, and solves tasks requiring human-like perception, cognition, planning, learning, communication, or physical action, or (3) is designed to: (a) think or act like a human, including, but not limited to, a cognitive architecture or neural network, or (b) act rationally, including, but not limited to, an intelligent software agent or embodied robot that achieves goals using perception, planning, reasoning, learning, communication, decision-making or action, or b. a set of techniques including, but not limited to, machine learning, that is designed to approximate a cognitive task.25 O.S. § 160.1(1) engine and not reviewed by a real personReal person"Real person" means an actual biological human being as opposed to a system or model meant to emulate human interactions.25 O.S. § 160.1(2), provided that the images or text would lead a reasonable person to believe that such content is real and authentic;
(4) 4 The right to be able to rely on a watermark or some other form of content credentials to verify the authenticity of creative product they generate or consume. Specifically, it shall not be permissible for any websites, social media platforms, search engines, and the like, to remove a watermark or content credential without inserting an updated watermark or content credential that indicates that the original was removed or altered;
(5) 5 The right to know that any company which includes any of their personally identifiable information in an artificial intelligenceArtificial intelligence"Artificial intelligence" means: a. a system that: (1) performs tasks under varying and unpredictable circumstances without significant human oversight or can learn from experience and improve such performance when exposed to data sets, (2) is developed in any context, including, but not limited to, software or physical hardware, and solves tasks requiring human-like perception, cognition, planning, learning, communication, or physical action, or (3) is designed to: (a) think or act like a human, including, but not limited to, a cognitive architecture or neural network, or (b) act rationally, including, but not limited to, an intelligent software agent or embodied robot that achieves goals using perception, planning, reasoning, learning, communication, decision-making or action, or b. a set of techniques including, but not limited to, machine learning, that is designed to approximate a cognitive task.25 O.S. § 160.1(1) model has implemented reasonable security measures for data privacy within the company's industry and conducts regular risk assessments to assess design, operational, and discrimination harm;

(7) 7 The right to be free from unlawful discrimination through algorithmic or model bias which discriminates based on age, race, national origin, sex, disability, pregnancy, religious beliefs, veteran status, or any other legally protected classification to the same extent as if such discrimination were perpetrated by a real personReal person"Real person" means an actual biological human being as opposed to a system or model meant to emulate human interactions.25 O.S. § 160.1(2).
This section enumerates seven rights that all Oklahoma citizens hold when interacting with artificial intelligence. The rights span AI identity disclosure during consequential interactions, notice that legally binding documents are entirely AI-generated and unreviewed, labeling of AI-generated images and text that could mislead a reasonable person, preservation of watermarks and content credentials by platforms, assurance that companies using personal data in AI models maintain reasonable security and conduct risk assessments, consent to AI-generated derivative media using one's voice or likeness, and freedom from algorithmic discrimination across protected characteristics.
The bill is structured as a declaratory rights framework — it states what citizens are entitled to but does not designate an enforcement authority, create a private right of action, or specify penalties. This leaves the practical enforceability of these rights uncertain absent subsequent implementing legislation.
This act shall become effective November 1, 2024.
This section establishes the effective date of the act as November 1, 2024. As the bill did not pass the Senate, this provision is moot.
