Urges generative artificial intelligence and content sharing platforms to make voluntary commitments to prevent and remove harmful content.
This resolution urges generative AI and content-sharing platforms to voluntarily commit to preventing and removing harmful "deepfake" and "cheapfake" content. It directly affects major AI and social media companies by asking them to proactively address artificially created media that manipulates reality (like fake videos or audio of people saying/doin things they never did). The key mechanism requires platforms to make voluntary commitments to remove such content, with copies of the resolution sent to company CEOs. The resolution defines harmful content as AI-generated media that appears authentic but depicts false speech or conduct, noting its use in blackmail, misinformation, and reputational harm. It emphasizes that this is a non-binding request, aligning with similar efforts in other states and federal initiatives.
