The Colorado Attorney General holds exclusive enforcement authority under the revised statute. The original law, SB24-205, was signed in 2024 with an initial February 1, 2026 effective date, then delayed to June 30, 2026 before this rewrite took hold. The specific scope and compliance mechanics of CADMA's disclosure and review requirements remain under review as implementation guidance develops.
Colorado's rewrite signals a significant retreat from the state's initial position as the nation's first comprehensive AI regulator. The change reflects two years of industry pushback and practical concerns that the original framework imposed excessive compliance burdens. Companies that had begun preparing for the original statute's requirements should reassess their compliance strategies under the narrower CADMA framework, particularly regarding which automated decision systems trigger obligations and what disclosure and human-review protocols now apply.
