For purposes of this section, the following definitions apply:
(1)
“Artificial intelligence” means an engineered or machine-based system that varies in its level of autonomy and that can, for explicit or implicit objectives, infer from the input it receives how to generate outputs that can influence physical or virtual environments. “Artificial intelligence” as used in this section applies to artificial intelligence systems that automatically draft
police report narratives based upon an analysis of in-car or dash-mounted cameras, or body-worn camera audio or video, and artificial intelligence systems that analyze a law enforcement officer’s dictated report to generate a police report narrative automatically enhanced by generative artificial intelligence.
(2)
“Contracted vendor” means a third party which has made artificial intelligence available to law enforcement for the purpose of generating a draft police report.
(3)
“First draft” means the initial document or narrative produced solely by artificial intelligence.
(4)
“Law enforcement agency” means any department or agency of the state or any local government, special district, or other political
subdivision thereof, that employs any peace officer, as described in Section 830.
(5)
“Official report” means the final version of the report that is signed by the officer under paragraph (2) of subdivision (a).
