(1) "Artificial intelligenceArtificial intelligence"Artificial intelligence" means a machine-based system that can, for a given set of human-defined objectives, make predictions, recommendations, or decisions influencing real or virtual environments.Utah Code § 53-25-601(1)" means a machine-based system that can, for a given set of human-defined objectives, make predictions, recommendations, or decisions influencing real or virtual environments.
(2) "Generative artificial intelligenceGenerative artificial intelligence"Generative artificial intelligence" means artificial intelligence technology that is capable of creating content such as text, audio, image, or video based on patterns learned from large volumes of data rather than being explicitly programmed with rules.Utah Code § 53-25-601(2)" means artificial intelligenceArtificial intelligence"Artificial intelligence" means a machine-based system that can, for a given set of human-defined objectives, make predictions, recommendations, or decisions influencing real or virtual environments.Utah Code § 53-25-601(1) technology that is capable of creating content such as text, audio, image, or video based on patterns learned from large volumes of data rather than being explicitly programmed with rules.
This section defines the two key terms used throughout Part 6: artificial intelligence and generative artificial intelligence. The AI definition tracks the NIST-style formulation — a machine-based system that makes predictions, recommendations, or decisions. The generative AI definition narrows to systems that create content (text, audio, image, or video) from patterns learned from large data volumes. These definitions scope the operative obligations in § 53-25-602.
(1)(a)–(b) 1 A law enforcement agency shall have a policy concerning the use of generative artificial intelligenceGenerative artificial intelligence"Generative artificial intelligence" means artificial intelligence technology that is capable of creating content such as text, audio, image, or video based on patterns learned from large volumes of data rather than being explicitly programmed with rules.Utah Code § 53-25-601(2) by employees of the law enforcement agency in the course and scope of the law enforcement agency's work. (b) The policy described in Subsection (1)(a) shall: (i) include the requirements described in Subsection (2); and (ii) provide employees of the law enforcement agency with information concerning the use of generative artificial intelligenceGenerative artificial intelligence"Generative artificial intelligence" means artificial intelligence technology that is capable of creating content such as text, audio, image, or video based on patterns learned from large volumes of data rather than being explicitly programmed with rules.Utah Code § 53-25-601(2), including: (A) which generative artificial intelligenceGenerative artificial intelligence"Generative artificial intelligence" means artificial intelligence technology that is capable of creating content such as text, audio, image, or video based on patterns learned from large volumes of data rather than being explicitly programmed with rules.Utah Code § 53-25-601(2) technologies the employees of the law enforcement agency may use; (B) the uses and tasks for which generative artificial intelligenceGenerative artificial intelligence"Generative artificial intelligence" means artificial intelligence technology that is capable of creating content such as text, audio, image, or video based on patterns learned from large volumes of data rather than being explicitly programmed with rules.Utah Code § 53-25-601(2) is permitted; (C) the importance of reviewing content generated by generative artificial intelligenceGenerative artificial intelligence"Generative artificial intelligence" means artificial intelligence technology that is capable of creating content such as text, audio, image, or video based on patterns learned from large volumes of data rather than being explicitly programmed with rules.Utah Code § 53-25-601(2); and (D) an acknowledgment that a violation of the policy described in Subsection (1)(a) may result in administrative disciplinary action by the head of the law enforcement agency.
(2)(a) 2 A written police report or other law enforcement record that was created wholly or partially by using generative artificial intelligenceGenerative artificial intelligence"Generative artificial intelligence" means artificial intelligence technology that is capable of creating content such as text, audio, image, or video based on patterns learned from large volumes of data rather than being explicitly programmed with rules.Utah Code § 53-25-601(2) shall: (a) contain within the report or record a disclaimer that the report or record contains content generated by artificial intelligenceArtificial intelligence"Artificial intelligence" means a machine-based system that can, for a given set of human-defined objectives, make predictions, recommendations, or decisions influencing real or virtual environments.Utah Code § 53-25-601(1);
(2)(b) 3 A written police report or other law enforcement record that was created wholly or partially by using generative artificial intelligenceGenerative artificial intelligence"Generative artificial intelligence" means artificial intelligence technology that is capable of creating content such as text, audio, image, or video based on patterns learned from large volumes of data rather than being explicitly programmed with rules.Utah Code § 53-25-601(2) shall: (b) include a certification by the author of the report or record that the author has read and reviewed the report or record for accuracy.
This section imposes three distinct obligations on law enforcement agencies. First, each agency must adopt a written policy governing employee use of generative AI, covering permitted technologies, authorized uses, the importance of reviewing AI-generated content, and acknowledgment that violations may lead to administrative discipline. Second, any police report or law enforcement record created wholly or partially with generative AI must contain a disclaimer identifying the AI-generated content. Third, the author of such a report must certify that they have personally read and reviewed the report for accuracy — a human-oversight requirement ensuring that AI-generated law enforcement records receive meaningful human verification before they are finalized.
