What it requires

  • Include a clear, visible disclosure whenever a political advertisement or electoral communication is created or modified, in whole or in part, using AI, including generative AI producing text, image, audio, or video.NIST AI RMFMEASURE 2.8
  • For a radio or other audiovisual electoral communication, make the AI disclosure as a spoken statement, not only in writing.NIST AI RMFMEASURE 2.8
  • Do not maliciously submit AI-generated or AI-altered false data, documents, or images to an electronic system operated by the Comisión Estatal de Elecciones without a clear, legible notice; a second or later violation is a criminal misdemeanor.NIST AI RMFMAP 3.3

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

If you get it wrong

Criminal exposureYes

Criminal exposure note

Article 12.7 of the Electoral Code, as amended, makes it a misdemeanor, on a second or later occasion, to maliciously include, keep, or transmit through an electronic system operated by the Comisión Estatal de Elecciones AI-generated or AI-altered false, altered, or fabricated data, documents, or images without a clear, legible notice, punishable by up to one year of imprisonment, a fine of $500 per item, or both.

What it makes you log

Logging duty

Ley 105-2026 requires a disclosure on political advertising and electoral communications created or modified with artificial intelligence, and separately makes it an offense to submit AI-generated or AI-altered false data to the Comisión Estatal de Elecciones' electronic systems without a clear notice; neither duty requires any party to keep a log, record or other documentation, and neither names anybody who may check one.

Ley 105-2026 amends Puerto Rico's Political Campaign Oversight Act (Ley 222-2011) and Electoral Code (Ley 58-2020) to define "Inteligencia Artificial", including generative AI capable of producing text, image, audio, or video, and to require that any political advertisement or electoral communication created or modified, in whole or in part, using AI carry a clear, visible disclosure that it was produced or altered with AI; a radio or other audiovisual communication must also make the disclosure as a spoken statement.

It further makes it a misdemeanor, on a second or later occasion, for any person to maliciously submit AI-generated or AI-altered false data, documents, or images to an electronic system operated by the Comisión Estatal de Elecciones without a clear, legible notice. Approved on and effective immediately on approval, with no separate vacatio legis period.
