Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend 11.1303 (title); and to create 11.1303 (2m) of the statutes; relating to: disclosures regarding con- tent generated by artificial intelligence in political advertisements, granting rule-making authority, and providing a penalty.

AI Summary

This bill amends Wisconsin's law on attribution of political contributions, disbursements, and communications to include requirements for disclosing the use of synthetic media (audio or video content generated by artificial intelligence) in political advertisements. The bill requires that any audio or video communication containing express advocacy, issue advocacy, or supporting/opposing a referendum and including synthetic media must include a disclosure stating that the content was generated by AI. The bill grants the Wisconsin Elections Commission rulemaking authority to implement these requirements and provides penalties for violations. The bill also includes provisions to clarify that the disclosure requirements do not create any new exemptions from civil or criminal liability and that the requirements do not alter existing immunities for providers of interactive computer services.
