(The Center Square) – A free speech group is raising concerns about a package of Minnesota bills regulating artificial intelligence, warning the proposals could have unintended consequences for Minnesotan's constitutional rights.

This comes as a bipartisan group of state lawmakers introduced a package of AI-related bills addressing health care decisions, children’s access to chatbots, pricing and government surveillance. The broader effort also includes a proposed amendment to the state constitution to address artificial intelligence.
