康涅狄格州的立法者提出了一项法案, 禁止在选举活动中使用人工智能制造的深度假冒信息. Connecticut lawmakers have advanced a bill to ban deceptive AI-generated deepfakes in election campaigns, prohibiting synthetic media that falsely depicts candidates. 法律在选举前90天生效, 从轻罪到重罪都会受到刑事处罚, 并允许民事诉讼. The law, effective 90 days before elections, imposes criminal penalties from misdemeanors to felonies and allows civil action. 批评者警告说, 这种广泛的定义可能会阻碍合法媒体工作, 而类似法律也存在于其他18个州. Critics warn the broad definition could chill legitimate media work, while similar laws exist in 18 other states.
