"Google Implements Transparency Measures for AI-Generated Election Ads"

Google has announced new rules requiring clear disclosures for election ads created with artificial intelligence (AI). The policy, which will take effect in mid-November, aims to address concerns about the spread of deceptive information online. Advertisers will be required to disclose when their election ads contain digitally altered or generated content. Minor changes to images do not require disclosure. Google's move follows existing transparency efforts and aims to support responsible political advertising and provide voters with the information they need to make informed decisions. Other digital ad platforms, such as Meta's Facebook and Instagram, already have similar policies in place.
