Plain-English Summary
Companies that make AI chatbots would have to follow strict rules to protect users' personal information and keep their data secure from hackers and misuse. The law would require these companies to be transparent about what data they collect, how they use it, and who they share it with, giving users more control over their information. This affects millions of people who use AI chatbots for work, school, or everyday tasks, as well as the tech companies that develop and operate these systems.
