A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to requiring a list of artificial intelligence systems that have been assessed by the office of algorithmic accountability

 

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

 

Section 1. Subchapter 1 of chapter 1 of title 3 of the administrative code of the city of New York is amended by adding a new section § 3-119.5.1 to read as follows:

§ 3-119.5.1 Citywide list of artificial intelligence systems assessed by office of algorithmic accountability. a. No later than March 31, 2027, the office of algorithmic accountability shall make publicly available on the city’s website a list of all artificial intelligence systems for which it has conducted a pre-deployment assessment. The list shall include the following information:

1. The name of such system and a description of such system;

2. A list of each entity that developed such system or manages its use, including the name of any vendor or contractor to be engaged in connection with such system, and identification of the entity responsible for the development and ongoing use of such system;

3. A description of the purposes and uses for which such system would be deployed;

4. The date on which the pre-deployment assessment of such system was completed;

5. A description of any risks identified by such pre-deployment assessment and any recommendations made by the office of algorithmic accountability in connection with such assessment as to how to minimize such risks;

6. A description of the data to which such system would have access at the time of use; and

7. Whether any person or company not employed by the city of New York would require or have access to such system or the data used by such system.

b. The list published pursuant to subdivision a of this section shall be updated annually, provided that no artificial intelligence system that has been assessed by the office of algorithmic accountability shall be removed from such list.

c. Inclusion of an artificial intelligence system on the list published pursuant to subdivision a of this section shall not be a prerequisite for use of such system by an agency.

§ 2. This local law takes effect on the same date as a local law for the year 2025 amending the New York city charter and the administrative code of the city of New York, relating to establishing an office of algorithmic accountability, as proposed in introduction number 199, takes effect.
