The Denver Post: After two years of task forces, collapsed deals, attempted overhauls and an Elon Musk lawsuit, Colorado lawmakers are finally poised to rewrite — and scale back — the state’s beleaguered artificial intelligence regulations.

The latest legislation, in contrast to those earlier stutter-starts, is flying through the legislature. By Saturday afternoon, Senate Bill 189 had met little resistance, had passed both chambers and was headed to Gov. Jared Polis’ desk, as the clock ticks down to the annual legislative session’s adjournment Wednesday night.

The proposal represents a near-total rewrite of the state’s initial attempt to protect Coloradans from being discarded by a discriminatory AI system when they apply for jobs, bank loans or housing. Passed into law in 2024, those rules — which haven’t yet taken effect — have become a piñata for nearly every group with an interest in them. Lawmakers are now preparing to scale them back to a requirement that applicants be made aware when AI is involved in a consequential decision about their lives.
