Fool’s Gold

The first state to regulate recreational dispensaries is the first to dispense with “AI.” Commentators like EFF have called Colorado’s Artificial Intelligence Act (CAIA), enacted last summer, “comprehensive,” but Colorado’s law merely resembles the European Union’s AI Act. “The Revolution permanently put the major models of European governance off the table,”[1] but apparently, Denver has taken too little from Brussels and put too much out of reach of the state. “Today, most commercial software includes open source components,” and now with DeepSeek? , it is more doubtful than ever that developing “high-risk AI” will require proprietary ownership. Before the CAIA goes into effect February 6, 2026, its omission of open source software (OSS) is an open wound that Denver can still patch: (1) directly, by amending the CAIA to align more closely with the EU, or (2) indirectly, by amending the Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) to collaterally attack the issue as Sacramento did with the updated California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
