Does Georgia require AI disclosure?
Case-by-case. Georgia has no formal ethics opinion on AI. The State Bar of Georgia's Special Committee on Artificial Intelligence and Emerging Technology published a Generative AI Toolkit, guidance rather than binding authority, that walks through how the Georgia Rules of Professional Conduct apply to generative AI. The Toolkit recommends disclosing AI use to clients depending on the circumstances, particularly where it affects fees or involves client-specific information, but does not state a blanket disclosure requirement.
