that AI has the potential to seriously harm our democracy…
Team,
Yvette Clarke is at the forefront of the ethical battle of AI in the media.
She recently did an interview with the Washington Post about the potential dangers of AI, especially in the political sphere.
While many in Congress are unphased about the potential biased and unethical behavior related to AI tools such as deep fakes, Yvette is sounding the alarm.
Yvette introduced two bills: one requires watermarks on deep fake videos, and the other mandates disclosure of AI-generated content in political ads. With AI's rapid advancement, the upcoming election cycle will see AI playing a pivotal role in shaping campaign advertisements, marking a significant milestone in our electoral process.
The Federal Election Commission stated it lacks the authority to regulate AI content in political ads, deferring the decision to the legislative court. Yvette's proposed bills aim to protect the public from misinformation and unethical political practices as AI's prevalence in campaigns grows, making these protective measures crucial.
Together, we can ensure transparency and integrity in our democratic processes.
