Spencer Fane attorneys Shawn Tuma and Christine Chasse’s article on the Texas Responsible Artificial Intelligence Governance Act (TRAIGA) was recently published by the Texas Lawyer.

As Shawn and Christine note, TRAIGA marks “a significant milestone in artificial intelligence (AI) regulation” that “establishes a comprehensive framework for the ethical development, deployment, and use of AI systems in Texas.”
