Automated Decision-Making Technology Rulemaking

Posted by Katie March on August 25, 2026

Earlier this month, the Attorney General released proposed rules regarding Automated Decision-Making Technology. These proposed rules are due to the passage of two bills during the 2026 legislative session: Senate Bill 26-189, a bill to regulate artificial intelligence systems used to make “consequential decisions” – a bill that revised a controversial bill passed in 2024 to make it less detrimental to Colorado’s businesses; and House Bill 1263, a bill to regulate chatbots, especially their interactions with children.

The Attorney General’s office decided to combine both bill’s rulemaking into one process to guide the implementation and give more detail to businesses on how to implement the new legislation.

After an initial comment period, the Attorney General’s office released 50 pages of new proposed rules regarding artificial intelligence. You can read the proposed rules here. Your GoWest team has been digging into the new rules and gathering feedback from credit unions about how this would impact their operations. We are still in the process of compiling feedback and creating a plan for how the credit union industry can impact the process.

If you have any feedback on the proposed rules please reach out to Katie March at [email protected] by September 10^th, or share this information with your technology, legal, or compliance teams.
