Scope and limitsApproval by the Governor, 29 September 2025 (Chapter 138, Statutes of 2025); the same record gives FILED 2025-09-29 (filing with the Secretary of State). These are the Legislative Counsel database’s structured action fields; the printed approval line (“Approved by Governor September 29, 2025”) is in the chaptered text on the Legislature’s website, quoted in the dataset’s record of the approval. Paraphrased with its locator, not quoted: quoting it would pass the source’s quotation limit, or the source’s length is not known. What the instrument’s text states, from the expression read. A cell records what the text requires of the parties it defines: not whether any developer falls within them, or complied.

Authors: California Legislature
Version: Chaptered version dated 09/29/25, inspected live 2026-10-04; quote also matched in the 2025-09-30 capture. Publisher as printed on the inspected expression: California Legislature (California Legislative Information, Office of Legislative Counsel). Retrieved again for the laws-compared candidate pack on 2026-11-01 as one member of the Legislative Counsel’s database file (pubinfo_2025.zip), because the Legislature’s website refused the request (SHA-256 20c44f4865db314fae2747d998189d47e70bf4cafb4add7be2294d0a73562b3c); the pack’s quotations were matched in it, and again in fresh retrievals of 2026-11-02 and 2026-11-04.

Archive copy: Open archived copy, captured 2025-09-30: SB-53 Artificial intelligence models: large developers. (2025-2026) — bill text, chaptered version (Chapter 138, Statutes of 2025). Captured 1 day after the recorded publication date. An archive copy shows only what the archive retrieved on 2025-09-30. It does not prove what the page said earlier, and it can differ from the copy checked on 2026-10-04.
Attribution: California Legislature, SB-53 Artificial intelligence models: large developers. (2025-2026) — bill text, chaptered version (Chapter 138, Statutes of 2025).
Reuse: Official government text; no redistribution licence asserted. Selekoa practice: metadata, attributed paraphrases and short attributed quotations under the editorial policy (at most 50 words each; at most 400 quoted words per document across the dataset, and about 10% of a document under about 2,000 words). Documents are linked externally, not redistributed. Publisher terms that forbid quotation override this practice.
Check notes: Candidate pack passage, laws compared (research/laws-compared), cell ca-sb53:Q10. Paraphrase of a passage that matched the text retrieved for the candidate pack on 2026-11-01 (SHA-256 20c44f4865db314fae2747d998189d47e70bf4cafb4add7be2294d0a73562b3c) and again on 2026-11-02 and 2026-11-04. Not quoted: SB 53 is at its quotation limit (maintainer decision 1a of 2026-11-03); the dataset’s record of the enactment quotes the printed approval line. A cross-family machine check (2026-11-02, item 19) answered this cell blind and agreed with the pack. No human editorial review.

Status and meaning

Editorial status. Machine-checked. Machines found this record and checked it against its sources; no person accepted it individually. Each evidence record above shows how it was checked.

Relation. An exact framework edition, or another document with an exact expression, states one provision: a capability threshold or risk level and its trigger, a required safeguard or action, a decision authority (who decides, recommends, can overrule or is informed), a stated exception, or another statement of its content, such as a licence term or a prospectus statement. The passage records what the document says, not implementation, compliance or effectiveness. Provisions with the same key align across editions of one family.

Date. Dated as the text compared is dated: the date of issue of its version, “Chaptered (Stats. 2025, ch. 138)”.
