When photo, video, or audio materials prepared using artificial intelligence technologies are publicly displayed, they must be provided with a clear and easily visible marking indicating that they were prepared using such technologies.
According to Modern.az, the issue is reflected in the draft law on amendments to the laws “On Information, Informatization and Protection of Information” and “On Media,” which was discussed at today's plenary session of the Milli Majlis.
The draft law “On Media” states that, according to the requirements for information published and/or broadcast in the media, the dissemination of photo, video, or audio materials that do not reflect reality, or are pornographic or sexually explicit, prepared using artificial intelligence technologies, as well as special software, by using a person's image or voice without their consent, shall not be permitted.
Furthermore, according to the draft law, in cases where such materials are disseminated, broadcasting may be temporarily suspended for up to 24 hours by a decision of the Audiovisual Council. At the same time, the import and dissemination of foreign print media products containing these materials into the country will also be prohibited.
The issue was put to a vote and adopted in the first reading.
