Bill Summary

A BILL To prohibit the distribution of materially deceptive AI-generated audio or visual media relating to candidates for Federal office, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, the Protect Elections from Deceptive AI Act, aims to prohibit the distribution of materially deceptive AI-generated audio or visual media relating to candidates for federal office. It amends the Federal Election Campaign Act to define "deceptive AI-generated audio or visual media" as content that appears authentic but was created using artificial intelligence or machine learning techniques, and which would give a reasonable person a fundamentally different understanding or impression than the original, unaltered version. The bill establishes a prohibition on knowingly distributing such deceptive content with the intent to influence an election or solicit funds, with certain exemptions for news media and satire/parody. It also allows covered individuals to seek injunctive relief or damages against violators.
