Securing Elections from AI Deception: Mandatory Disclaimers and Misinformation Ban.
This law protects citizens' right to vote by banning the intentional use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to defraud or deprive individuals of their voting rights, such as spreading false information about polling places or candidates. It mandates clear disclaimers on all election-related content (video, audio, text) generated by AI that simulates candidates or provides voting procedures. Citizens gain greater assurance that election information they encounter is either authentic or clearly labeled as AI-generated.
Key points
AI Deception Ban: It is strictly prohibited to use AI intentionally to spread false election information (e.g., wrong dates, voting locations) or to intimidate voters. Violations carry penalties including fines and imprisonment.
Mandatory AI Labeling: Election content created by AI (e.g., deepfakes of candidates, altered voice recordings) must be clearly marked with a specific disclaimer or AI symbol for transparency.
Tech Company Responsibility: Companies developing and deploying AI algorithms have a legal "duty of care" to ensure their tools are "safe and effective" and do not facilitate electoral fraud or deceptive practices.
