AEDT deployers must give employees a pre-decision notice (Connecticut)
Before an automated employment-related decision technology (AEDT) is used to make or substantially influence an employment-related decision, the deployer must give the employee/applicant a written notice: that an AEDT is used, its purpose and the decision's nature, the AEDT trade name, the categories/sources of personal data it processes and how they're assessed, and deployer contact info. Deployers must also disclose when a person is interacting with an AEDT. Detect an AEDT employment-decision path with no pre-decision notice. Note: use of an AEDT is NOT a defense to an employment-discrimination claim (Sec. 13/14).

AI companions must maintain a suicide/self-harm crisis protocol (Connecticut)
An operator may not provide an AI companion unless it maintains a protocol using evidence-based methods to detect user expressions indicating suicide/self-harm/imminent violence risk, prevent outputs encouraging such, and refer at-risk users to crisis resources (incl. the 988 Lifeline) and then to mental-health services. The operator must also prevent the companion from claiming to be human. Detect an AI-companion path with no crisis-detection/referral hook.

AI companions must disclose they are not human (Connecticut)
If an AI companion would lead a reasonable user to believe they are interacting with a human, the operator must give a clear and conspicuous notice that the user is communicating with an AI companion — either static-throughout, or at the start of each 24-hour period plus recurring reminders (hourly for minors, every 3 hours for adults). Detect an AI-companion interaction path with no non-human disclosure.

Large GenAI providers must embed tamper-resistant provenance data (Connecticut)
A covered provider (generative AI system with >1M monthly users, publicly accessible) must, to the extent commercially/technically reasonable, embed provenance data in AI-created or materially-altered audio/image/video so a consumer can assess whether the content is AI-made, using tamper-resistant methods including the C2PA standard. Detect synthetic-media generation paths emitting no provenance marking.
