Bulletin 2026-9: Use of Artificial Intelligence Systems by Insurers (Mississippi Insurance Department)

Summary

The Mississippi Insurance Department issued Bulletin 2026-9 on July 22, 2026, its version of the NAIC Model Bulletin on insurers' use of AI. It reminds insurers authorized in Mississippi that decisions or actions affecting consumers that are made or supported by AI systems must comply with existing insurance law, including the rules on unfair trade practices and unfair discrimination; sets the Department's expectations for how insurers govern the development, acquisition and use of AI; and describes the information the Department may request in an investigation or examination. It is regulatory guidance, not a statute. No comprehensive private-sector AI statute was identified for Mississippi, but that absence was not confirmed against a primary source.
