Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

10 provisions identified: 8 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.

Attorney review for customers’ AI legal documents

Beginning January 1, 2026, sellers of AI legal-document software must arrange review by a Nevada-licensed attorney. Each document must be reviewed before it reaches a Nevada customer. Exempt customers include Nevada-licensed attorneys, authorized law firms, state and local government, and Nevada courts, judges, arbitrators, and mediators.

Insured customers gain AI privacy safeguards

Beginning January 1, 2026, insurers need your affirmative, voluntary consent to train their own AI using collected health data. They must clearly explain the training use and tell you that you can refuse. Insurers must also use practices designed to prevent unfair or deceptive AI use. They must maintain written responsible-use plans covering their own AI and systems developed by others. Plans may include standards for outside providers to cooperate with regulatory inquiries and audits.

Search users control some AI training

Beginning January 1, 2026, search operators offering Nevada users both training and non-training methods must get users’ opt-in. This permission is required before using the method that sends search information into AI training. Users who refuse can keep using the non-training method while the operator offers it in Nevada. The law does not require operators to offer both methods.

Landlords face limits on AI rent-setting

Beginning January 1, 2026, landlords cannot set home rents using certain AI recommendations. The ban applies when the system uses nonpublic information about rents supplied by multiple landlords. Nevada treats this practice as an unlawful restraint of trade. The law does not ban all AI rent-setting or set a rent cap.

Police AI policies must protect rights

Beginning January 1, 2026, Nevada law enforcement agencies must create, maintain, and periodically update AI-use policies. These policies cover uses such as reports and facial recognition. They must be designed to protect the public’s civil and constitutional rights. Agencies must send each policy and update to the Bureau of Consumer Protection.

Document filers face stronger fraud checks

Beginning January 1, 2026, every Nevada county recorder must maintain identity-verification and anti-fraud procedures. The procedures must verify every person filing a document and protect against fraud using AI. These safeguards apply to county document filings.

Teachers and pupils shape school AI guidance

Nevada’s education superintendent must establish a working group to assess school AI use during the 2025–2026 interim. It must develop safe-use guidance and a model policy for districts and charter schools. At least half its members must be licensed public-school teachers with knowledge of AI in education. Membership also includes school, higher-education, industry, and staff representatives, plus five public-school pupils, including at-risk, magnet, and charter pupils. The group must seek teacher and pupil input and hold at least three public meetings. Guidance must address academic honesty, acceptable uses, privacy, parents’ access to pupil-entered data, purchasing safeguards, inequities, and teacher training. Guidance must be posted by January 1, 2026; the assessment and recommendations are due to the Legislature by January 1, 2027. The Department of Education provides administrative support.

Financial customers gain possible AI safeguards

Beginning January 1, 2026, Nevada’s Commissioner of Financial Institutions has authority to set AI rules for covered licensed financial businesses. Rules may protect customers’ financial-data privacy and security or support effective business management. They may restrict using customer financial data to train AI. This law grants rulemaking authority; it does not itself set those detailed restrictions. Preparation of regulations is authorized upon passage and approval.

Covered AI companies face registration fees

Beginning January 1, 2026, covered AI developers must register before doing business in Nevada. This covers developers selling or charging for access to legal-document, human-image service, rent-pricing, or social-media-search-trained systems. Applications must disclose the company’s name, address, data kept, and data storage locations. Registrations last one year, and application and renewal fees are set by the Bureau of Consumer Protection; no amount is stated. Individual applicants must provide a Social Security number and signed child-support statement. The Bureau cannot approve a missing statement or failure to follow a child-support order or approved repayment plan. Certain court suspension orders trigger registration suspension after 30 days unless compliance is shown; registration must be restored when compliance is shown. The Bureau may impose up to $5,000 per registration violation.

Employers must report AI job risks

Beginning January 1, 2026, Nevada’s employment department must survey selected employers about AI-related job-loss risks. Selection is based on relevant academic studies, and employers receiving a survey must complete and return it. By December 1 each year, the department must compile combined results without identifying employers, workers, or others. Identifying information is confidential and cannot be disclosed without prior written consent; statistical use must not reveal identities. AI temporarily covering a temporarily absent worker’s duties does not count as a lost job. The survey creates no new unemployment benefits or retraining funding.
