1 AN ACT concerning business.
2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
4 Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the
5 Provenance Data Requirements Act.
6 Section 5. Definitions. As used in this Act:
7 "Artificial intelligence" means a machine-based system
8 that, for explicit or implicit objectives, infers, from the
9 input it receives, how to generate outputs, such as
10 predictions, content, recommendations, or decisions that can
11 influence physical or virtual environments. For the purposes
12 of this definition a system that uses "artificial
13 intelligence" may vary in its level of autonomy and
14 adaptations after deployment.
15 "Capture device" means a device that can record
16 photographs, audio, or video content, including, but not
17 limited to, video and still photography cameras, mobile phones
18 with built-in cameras or microphones, and voice recorders.
19 "Content" means any visual or audio digital content.
20 "Generative artificial intelligence model" means an
21 artificial intelligence model designed to generate new data or
22 content based on the patterns or structures from its training
23 data.

14 use of third-party technology, to wholly-generated synthetic
15 content generated by the provider's generative artificial
16 intelligence tool.
17 (b) A generative artificial intelligence tool provider
18 shall make available a provenance application tool that
19 enables the user to apply provenance data, either directly or
20 through the use of third-party technology, to content that has
21 been significantly modified to include synthetic content.
22 (c) A generative artificial intelligence tool provider
23 shall make a provenance reader available to the public.
