Florida bill regulating AI in political ads could get governor’s signature ‘very soon'

Even Florida’s governor is guilty of using fake, AI-made, images in political ads. But soon, he may sign a bill creating guardrails for it. That’s as some say the legislation lacks the teeth needed to truly take a bite out of the problem. Maybe you have gotten a fake robocall from a president who wasn’t actually on the line, or you saw ads featuring words never actually said. Artificial intelligence is now a part of the political process. Campaigns, left and right, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, making ads with fake audio, video, or images like those of the former president and Dr. Anthony Fauci embracing. “It's amazing just how real some of this is,” said state Rep. Alex Rizo (R-Hialeah).

Why wouldn't they just ban AI in political ads altogether instead of allowing them as long as there is a disclaimer? Or how about the novel idea of not allowing political ads to be lies at all?
