Colorado Releases Proposed Rules For Its AI And Chatbot Safety Laws: These Create More Operational Work Than The Statutes Suggest

On August 11, 2026, the Colorado Department of Law released a single set of proposed rules substantially building out two 2026 statutes: the Automated Decision-Making Technology Act (“ADMT Act”) and the Conversational Artificial Intelligence Service Operator Requirements (the “Chatbot Safety Act”). Both laws take effect January 1, 2027, and the proposed rules would become effective the same day.
