New Delhi, April 19: The Election Commission on Sunday said it has taken action against 11,000 “unlawful” social media posts and other content related to the polls in five assemblies.
The poll authority pointed to its direction that any misleading or unlawful AI-generated or manipulated content has to be acted upon within three hours of being brought to the notice of the social media platforms.
Political parties, candidates and campaign representatives are also required to ensure that any synthetically generated or AI-altered content used for campaigning is clearly labelled as “AI-Generated”, “Digitally Enhanced” or “Synthetic Content”, along with disclosure of the originating entity, to maintain transparency and voter trust.
