CAIDP California

CAIDP California advances CAIDP’s work on AI and digital policy in California, with a focus on AI legislation, automated decision-making, transparency, accountability, civil rights, privacy, and the public interest.

CAIDP California was launched in 2024 to strengthen CAIDP’s engagement with California lawmakers and agencies and to help ensure that AI policy in the state promotes a better society — more fair, more just, and more accountable — based on fundamental rights, democratic institutions, and the rule of law.

California is one of the most important jurisdictions for AI governance. CAIDP California provides nonpartisan analysis, testimony, and recommendations to state lawmakers and public agencies on AI systems that affect consumers, workers, communities, and democratic institutions.
