Commerce and trade; require that AI generated content include a disclaimer indicating such content was generated using artificial intelligence

View primary source →

Georgia House Bill 478 has been introduced but not enacted. If enacted, it would amend the Fair Business Practices Act to require disclaimers on AI generated content used in commerce or trade. Section 1 would add a definition of "AI generated content" to Code Section 10-1-392. The definition covers video, audio, and still image recordings or files created by a machine based system that emulates human cognitive processes. Section 2 would add new Code Section 10-1-393.20. On or after July 1, 2025, anyone disseminating AI generated content to facilitate commerce or trade would have to include a disclosure that AI was used to make all or part of it (subsection (a)). For visual media, the disclosure must be written in each written language used in the content. It must also be clearly readable: letters at least 30 percent of the vertical picture height, visible for at least 30 percent of the media's length for moving images and video, and with reasonable color contrast (subsection (b)). For audible media, the disclosure must be spoken at the same volume and speaking rate as the content, in each spoken language used (subsection (c)). Omitting a required disclosure would be unlawful (subsection (d)). Each video, audio, or image file disseminated without the disclosure would count as a separate violation (subsection (e)). Section 3 repeals conflicting laws.
