Legal Background
Maryland has considered legislation addressing employer use of AI in employment decisions, including measures requiring impact assessments for automated employment decision tools. Maryland has also addressed AI-generated content in political advertising at the election law level. Specific enacted statutes and their codified citations should be verified against current Maryland annotated code before reliance, as legislative status has evolved. The Maryland Consumer Protection Act (Md. Code, Com. Law § 13-301 et seq.) may apply to deceptive AI use in consumer contexts.
