The AI disclosure map — United States.
State-level AI disclosure and transparency laws of commercial application: in force, deadline ahead, enacted and confirming — and the rest not yet examined. No federal disclosure statute is recorded; the states are where this record lives.
Companion panel: the world map →
Select a colored state for its register entry. Pale states are not yet examined — a statement about our reading queue, not their legislatures.
Inclusion policy: all 50 states + DC are in scope; a state appears as a tile when the register first records or begins confirming it — currently 7 recorded · 2 confirming · 42 not yet examined (the full accounting is in the table below). Scope: disclosure & transparency laws of commercial application; election-ad deepfake statutes and government-use rules are out of scope for this panel.
