"FCC Proposes Legislation to Ban AI-Generated Robocalls"

The FCC has proposed making AI-generated robocalls illegal under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, following the use of a fake voice resembling President Biden in calls to voters ahead of the New Hampshire primary election. The agency aims to give state attorneys general new tools to combat these scams, with 26 states already supporting the proposal. As the New Hampshire Attorney General's Office investigates a similar robocall, the FCC recognizes the potential for AI-generated calls to confuse consumers with misinformation and is taking steps to address this emerging technology.
