'This bill is simple,' Rep. Chris Pielli, a Democrat from Chester County, said. 'If it's AI, it has to say it's AI. Buyer beware'Pennsylvania state representatives have approved a bill requiring that consumers be notified when artificial intelligence is used to generate content.
Pennsylvania consumers would be notified when content has been generated by artificial intelligence, and defendants couldn’t argue that child sexual abuse material created by artificial intelligence isn’t illegal, under a bill the House passed Wednesday. The bill would change the state's Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law to require “clear and conspicuous disclosure” when artificial intelligence has been used to create written text, images, audio or video.
Public disclosure of AI’s use is an emerging theme across hundreds of state bills in U.S. legislatures that seek to regulate the new technology.
