(1) The general assembly finds and
declares that:

(a) The revolutionary innovations in generative artificial intelligence systems
capable of producing image, audio, video, and multimedia content (AI-generated
content) pose a threat to free and fair elections in the state;

(b) AI-generated content may be used to create deepfakes that falsely
depict a candidate's speech or action in order to spread misinformation and
disinformation at scale and with unprecedented speed; and

(c) A deepfake is analogous to a person being forced to say something in a
video recorded under duress, where the victim appears to say something they
would not normally say, one through force and the other through deepfake
technology. A voter's opinion of a candidate may be irreparably tainted by a
fabricated representation of a candidate or elected official saying or doing
something they did not say or do. These false, negative portrayals may exist
indefinitely once posted on the internet and permanently damage a candidate or
elected official's reputation and even put their safety at risk.
