Summary

Creates Delaware’s Agentic Artificial Intelligence Sandbox Program to pilot and evaluate emerging, autonomous/agentic AI systems under controlled conditions. The program empowers state officials to grant time‑limited regulatory flexibility with guardrails, accept applications from innovators, and produce public reports on outcomes, risks, and recommended statewide standards.

Healthcare Implications

Enables health‑tech startups and providers to test agentic AI tools for clinical operations or patient support (e.g., scheduling, navigation, documentation) within a supervised framework. Participants must implement privacy safeguards and risk controls, offering a pathway to gather evidence on safety, bias, and patient impact before broader deployment in hospitals or payer settings.
