Arizona AI and Privacy Laws

What the law says

HB 2175, in effect since July 1, 2026, requires an insurer’s medical director to individually review medical necessity claim denials and prior authorization denials rather than relying solely on another source’s recommendation.

Earlier laws address deceptive deepfakes, including in elections, and treat AI-generated child sexual abuse images the same as real ones.

In June 2026 the governor vetoed several AI bills, including chatbot safety rules for minors.
