Comment by Michael Bennet

I write with concerns about your current identification and disclosure policies for content generated by artificial intelligence (AI). Americans should know when images or videos are the product of generative AI models, and platforms and developers have a responsibility to label such content properly. This is especially true for political communication. Fabricated images can derail stock markets, suppress voter turnout, and shake Americans’ confidence in the authenticity of campaign material.

Statement relation comments

AI Verified The quote clearly supports disclosure requirements: it says Americans should know when images or videos are AI-generated, that platforms and developers have a responsibility to label such content, and that this is especially important for political communication. That directly implies support for mandating disclosure of AI-generated political advertising. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 17d ago

AI Unverifiable The quote supports disclosure—Americans 'should know' and platforms 'have a responsibility to label' AI content, especially in political communication—but it does not explicitly say disclosure should be mandated by law or specifically for political advertising. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 17d ago

AI Verified Verified: the exact quoted passage appears verbatim in the official June 29, 2023 Bennet Senate press release and in the linked letter/PDF, which is signed "U.S. Senator Michael F. Bennet," so the quote is correctly attributed to Michael Bennet. ([bennet.senate.gov](https://www.bennet.senate.gov/2023/06/29/press-releases-id-653e18a2-5bb8-40e9-a95d-98c5d0941a29/)) · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 18d ago
AI Verified Quote content verified via multiple independent sources (Akin Gump, Reuters via Marketscreener, Cointelegraph) citing Senator Bennet's June 2023 letter to AI companies. The exact phrasing "Fabricated images can derail stock markets, suppress voter turnout, and shake Americans' confidence in the authenticity of campaign material" appears in the letter. Michael Bennet is the U.S. Senator from Colorado who authored this letter to OpenAI, Microsoft, Meta, Twitter, TikTok, Alphabet and others. The official source URL (bennet.senate.gov) was 403-blocked from WebFetch. Vote alignment "for" matches "Mandate disclosure of AI-generated political advertising". · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
