AZ SB1599

Amends Arizona Revised Statutes Section 13-701 to add artificial intelligence use as an aggravating circumstance in sentencing.

Modifies the definition of "deadly weapon or dangerous instrument" in paragraph 2 to explicitly include artificial intelligence.

Adds a new aggravating circumstance (paragraph 27) allowing courts to consider whether a defendant committed an offense using artificial intelligence when determining sentences.

Allows judges to impose enhanced sentences when artificial intelligence was used in the commission of a felony, subject to existing procedural requirements for aggravating circumstances.
