Ro Khanna, Adam Schiff Move To Ban Deceptive AI-Generated Campaign AdsWASHINGTON, DC – Two Democratic lawmakers have reintroduced legislation that would ban deceptive artificial intelligence-generated campaign advertising, warning that fabricated images, videos and voices pose a growing threat to US elections. Senator Adam Schiff and Congressman Ro Khanna, both from California, said the AI Ads Act would prohibit the fraudulent misrepresentation of political candidates or committees through content created wholly or partly with AI. “I’m proud to lead the AI Ads Act with Senator Schiff to ban AI-generated content that deceives the public about candidates or elections.” “Deceptive AI content online can manipulate voters, which is why we need this commonsense bill to ban AI ads that misrepresent candidates,” said Abigail Bellows of Common Cause. Public Citizen’s Craig Holman said about 30 states had enacted laws aimed at protecting state elections from deceptive AI practices.
