This bill aims to protect information shared with AI chatbots such as ChatGPT and Claude, addressing concerns that such data could be exploited. The proposed act would empower the FTC to enforce these rules and allow individuals to sue for violations, with a significant budget allocated for enforcement over the next decade. AI
