42 Public Interest Groups Praise FCC Action on AI Political Ad Disclosures

The FCC’s proposed disclosure rules for political ads that use AI-created content “are a natural and common-sense extension” of its mandates for ensuring transparency in broadcasting and political ads, Public Citizen, Campaign Legal Center, the National Organization for Women and 39 other public interest groups said in a letter to the Media Bureau Thursday. “The proposed rules are especially important because broadcasters interpret the FCC’s current rules as prohibiting them from requiring disclosure of AI-generated content,” the letter said. “We urge the FCC to adopt these rules promptly.” NAB didn’t comment.
