Plain-English Summary

This bill would require companies to test and disclose how their algorithms make decisions that affect consumers, such as determining what content people see online, setting prices, or evaluating creditworthiness. Companies would need to identify and report potential biases or harms caused by these automated systems, and regulators would have authority to investigate and take action against algorithms that unfairly discriminate or deceive people. The rules would apply to large tech companies, financial institutions, and other businesses that use algorithms to make significant decisions about customers.
