Vermont · 2022 Vt. Acts & Resolves No. 132 (H.410); 3 V.S.A. 3305
Vermont directed its Agency of Digital Services to review and catalog every automated decision system the state is building, using, or buying. The inventory must document each system's name, vendor, capabilities, data inputs, whether it was tested for bias, its intended purpose, and its costs, covering both systems that decide on their own and those that assist a human. The law also created state AI governance bodies, including a Division of Artificial Intelligence and an AI Advisory Council.
