India Mandates AI Content Labeling, Cuts Unlawful Content Removal Time
The Indian government has amended IT rules, making it mandatory to label AI-generated content and synthetic media. The timeline for removing unlawful content from social media platforms has been reduced from 36 hours to 3 hours. This change requires platforms to apply a "synthetic" or "AI" label to content created using artificial intelligence. The government has been pushing for these changes for several months, aiming to address concerns around misinformation and deepfakes.
