The use of artificial intelligence (AI) by insurance companies is one of the most important regulatory issues currently facing the U.S. insurance industry. Recommendations and decisions concerning insurance policy underwriting, pricing and claims adjudications can now be performed faster and more accurately with the use of AI. But the potential and proven benefits of AI raise insurance regulatory concerns.

State insurance regulators are now moving at a fast pace. California, Colorado and New York have already issued guidance or enacted legislation on the use of AI by the insurance industry. Additionally, 24 states have adopted their own versions of the National Association of Insurance Commissioner’s 2023 Model Bulletin: “Use of Artificial Intelligence Systems by Insurers.”
