AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would add helping small businesses evaluate artificial intelligence (AI) to the list of services that small business development centers provide under the Small Business Act. The centers would give small businesses information, guidance, and training on using AI, including best practices, adding AI to business operations, and using AI for planning, data and intellectual property protection, cybersecurity, regulatory compliance, and customer trust. The centers would also reach out to small businesses about AI use where practical. The bill defines 'artificial intelligence' using an existing federal law and does not authorize any additional money to carry out these changes.
