Mandatory Labeling of AI-Generated Content in Federal Government Communications.
This law requires federal officials to clearly label any publicly released content (text, images, video) created or manipulated using generative artificial intelligence. This ensures citizens know when official information originates from AI, increasing transparency and allowing for a more informed assessment of government communications' reliability. Officials violating these rules face disciplinary action, and unlabeled content must be retracted and corrected.
Key points
All public government communications generated or altered by AI must include a clear and understandable disclaimer.
The disclaimer must explain the type of AI technology used to create or alter the content, increasing public awareness.
Federal officials and contractors violating these rules face disciplinary action, including potential contract termination.
In case of violation, the agency must retract the content and issue a communication explaining the violation and, if possible, a corrected version.
