What it requires

  • Before placing a telephone call or automated call in a political campaign that was created using artificial intelligence and uses the voice of a public figure, an elected official, or a limited public figure, give a clear and understandable disclosure at the start of the call that it was created using artificial intelligence.
  • As an interactive computer service, internet or telecommunications provider, or broadcaster, you are not liable under this Section for content supplied by another person.

These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text.

What it makes you log

Logging duty

The disclosure duty runs to the person receiving the telephone call, at the start of the call. Nothing in subsections (D) through (H) requires the caller, the interactive computer service, or the Board of Ethics to keep a log, record, or file of a call's content, its AI use, or the disclosure given.
