Bill > HR4628

This bill, known as the AI Impersonation Prevention Act of 2025, amends existing federal law to specifically criminalize the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to impersonate federal officials. The legislation adds new provisions to Section 912 of Title 18 of the United States Code, making it a crime to use AI to mimic the voice or likeness of a federal officer in a way that produces materially false or misleading content. Offenders could face fines, imprisonment of up to three years, or both. The bill carefully defines "artificial intelligence" as any system capable of performing tasks typically requiring human intelligence, such as generating human-like audio, video, or text. Importantly, the law includes protections for First Amendment-protected content like satire and parody, provided such content includes a clear disclaimer that it is not authentic. The bill also provides a definition of "impersonation" that covers falsely representing oneself as another identifiable individual in a manner likely to deceive others. A severability clause ensures that if any part of the law is found invalid, the rest of the legislation remains in effect, providing a robust legal framework to address potential AI-driven impersonation of government officials.
