Sacramento, CA – On July 24, 2025, the California Chamber of Commerce (CalChamber) voiced its disappointment regarding newly proposed regulations surrounding automated decision-making technologies. The organization emphasizes that these regulations could impose significant burdens on businesses, potentially stifling innovation and economic growth within the state.

CalChamber argues that the rules, while aimed at ensuring transparency and fairness, may inadvertently hinder the development and deployment of advanced technologies that could benefit consumers and businesses alike. The organization believes that a more balanced approach is necessary, one that safeguards consumer rights without placing excessive restrictions on technological advancements.

The Chamber is particularly concerned about the vague language and broad scope of the regulations, which could lead to confusion and unintended consequences for businesses striving to comply. As discussions continue, CalChamber is urging policymakers to consider the potential impacts on the state's economy and the importance of fostering an environment that encourages innovation while protecting consumer interests.
