California has recently engaged in legislative activity concerning the use of artificial intelligence in the workplace. While some new privacy laws, including extensions to CCPA exemptions, have been enacted and are reported to indirectly impact employers' AI use, a separate, more direct bill known as the "No Robo Bosses Act" (AB 331) was vetoed by Governor Newsom.
