Bill information

Summary

A bill to direct agencies to be transparent when using automated and augmented systems to interact with the public or make critical decisions, and for other purposes.

Plain-language summary

The TAG Act requires federal agencies to be open and clear about using automated systems—like artificial intelligence or computer algorithms—when they interact with the public or make important decisions. Automated systems are computer programs that make decisions with little human involvement; augmented systems combine computers and human judgment. The bill affects federal agencies and members of the public who encounter these systems. Currently, the bill has been introduced in Congress but has not yet advanced further.
