California has passed the Artificial Intelligence Transparency Act, a pioneering law regulating generative AI technologies. The act requires entities to disclose when AI is used to create content or make decisions, with a particular focus on preventing misinformation and protecting consumer rights. It mandates clear labeling of AI-generated text, images, and audio in commercial and political communications. Enforcement provisions include penalties for non-compliance and false claims.

The law aims to enhance public awareness and trust in AI technologies while encouraging ethical development and responsible use. Stakeholders are urged to implement transparency measures promptly. This legislation may serve as a model for other states and future federal AI regulations.
