Arizona Passes AI-Driven Deepfake Law with ChatGPT's Help

State Rep. Alex Kolodin utilized ChatGPT to define digital impersonation in legislation aimed at curbing AI-generated misinformation.

The law allows Arizona residents to obtain court orders declaring deepfake videos as false.
Kolodin used ChatGPT to write the technical definition of deepfakes within the bill.
The bill passed unanimously in both chambers and was signed by Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs.
Kolodin kept his use of ChatGPT a secret until after the bill was signed.
The legislation is part of wider efforts to regulate AI ahead of upcoming elections.
