     5  meanings:
     6    (a) "Generative artificial intelligence system" shall mean a  combina-

    10    (b) "Artificial intelligence" shall mean an automated system  designed
    11  to perform a task typically associated with human intelligence or cogni-
    12  tive function.

    14  gence  system shall conspicuously display a warning on the system's user
