Overview

A4732 proposes disclosure requirements for AI companions in New Jersey. The Assembly Children, Families, and Food Security Committee advanced it on September 17, 2026, according to the Assembly Democrats’ announcement. This is a committee advancement, not enactment.[2]

Introduced proposal

The March 10 introduced text would require verbal or written notice that users are not communicating with a human, at the start of an interaction and at least every three hours thereafter. It proposes a $15,000 civil penalty per violation.[1]

Its AI-companion definition concerns systems simulating sustained personal relationships through retained interaction information, unsolicited emotional questions and ongoing personal dialogue. The introduced text proposes immediate effect upon enactment; that clause does not make the pending bill operative.[1]
