States are introducing bills to regulate AI-generated “deepfakes” in election campaigns.
Wisconsin and 20 other states have passed laws requiring disclosure of AI-generated content in ads.
“We want voters to know that what you see is what you get,” Rep. Clinton Anderson said.
Wisconsin also passed bills mandating labels on AI-generated communications and audits on AI tool usage.
The FCC recently made AI-generated robocalls illegal, following incidents of AI-generated calls impersonating political figures.
“With artificial intelligence, it’s getting harder and harder to know what is true,” Rep. Adam Neylon said.
The battle against AI threats in elections should involve both government and the private sector.
“In the end, the threat posed by AI to the American election system is no different than the use of malware and ransomware deployed by nation-states and organized crime groups against our personal and corporate networks on a daily basis,” Optiv vice president of cyber risk James Turgal said.
“The battle to mitigate these threats can and should be fought by both the United States government and the private sector.”
