Arkansas AI and Privacy Laws

What the law says

Arkansas has no broad AI law or comprehensive consumer privacy law. 2025 laws require every public entity, from state agencies to schools and local governments, to adopt policies on AI and automated decision tools; set default ownership of AI-generated content, with the person giving the input as owner and employers owning work-related output; extend publicity rights to AI-cloned voices and likenesses; and make nonconsensual deepfake sexual images and AI-generated child sexual abuse material crimes.

What this means for your organization

This state regulates specific uses of AI rather than AI in general. Check whether any of your AI uses fall into the categories above, such as chatbots, synthetic media, or AI in health coverage decisions, and remember that federal law and the laws of other states where you operate may also apply.

Our 2027 AI Governance Checklist covers the steps most organizations need, and our State AI Law Trackers explain the rules for specific industries.
