Has specific legislation, final regulations or other formal regulatory guidance addressing the use of AI in your jurisdiction been implemented (vs reliance on existing legislation around IP, cyber, data privacy, etc.)?

Yes. The Virginia Insurance Commissioner has adopted the National Association of Insurance Commissioners model bulletin on the use of artificial intelligence by insurers, with certain modifications.

Please provide a short summary of the legislation/regulations/guidance and explain how legislators aim to strike the balance between innovation and regulation.

The bulletin requires insurers that use AI systems to adopt a written AI program designed to eliminate the risk of adverse consumer outcomes. It also strongly encourages such insurers to test for unfair discrimination.

Which agency regulates the use of AI in your jurisdiction?

The Virginia Bureau of Insurance.
