This bill, HB9715, proposes to allow the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in arbitration processes. Arbitration is a way to resolve disputes outside of traditional courts, often used in business and contractual disagreements. By permitting AI, the bill aims to modernize and potentially speed up these processes.

The bill would mainly affect businesses, legal professionals, and anyone involved in arbitration. The use of AI could make arbitration more efficient and less costly, but it might also raise concerns about fairness and transparency in the process.

HB9715 was introduced and referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary on July 15, 2026. This is the initial step in the legislative process, and the committee will now review and potentially make changes to the bill before it moves forward.
