AI Summary
This bill establishes comprehensive regulations for the provenance (origin and modification history) of digital content generated by artificial intelligence (AI), focusing on transparency and accountability. The legislation defines key terms such as "generative artificial intelligence" and "synthetic content," and imposes specific requirements on AI developers and social media platforms. Generative AI developers must make provenance application tools available that allow users to track the origin and modifications of AI-generated content, and they must also provide free provenance readers to the public. Social media platforms are mandated to retain and make provenance data accessible to users, with clear indicators about the content's AI-generated nature. The bill specifies that any violation of these requirements constitutes an unfair or deceptive practice, which can be enforced exclusively by the Attorney General, with a 30-day cure period provided before enforcement action. Importantly, the law does not create a private right of action and explicitly excludes video game experiences from its scope. The provisions are set to take effect on July 1, 2026, giving stakeholders ample time to prepare for compliance with these new transparency requirements in digital content creation and sharing.
