AL SB129

Developers of generative AI systems must include clear, conspicuous disclosures on AI-generated images, video, or audiovisual content, with metadata identifying the content as AI-generated, the tool used, and creation timestamp

Disclosures must match the content format (visual for visual content, both visual and audible for audiovisual), be unavoidable, understandable to a reasonable person, and not contradicted by the content itself

Developers and third-party licensees must implement procedures to prevent disclosure removal, including contractual requirements, user certifications, and terminating access for violators

Violations constitute unlawful trade practices under Alabama's Deceptive Trade Practices Act, with the Attorney General required to provide 30 days' written notice and opportunity to cure before initiating enforcement

Injured persons have a private right of action, and the act becomes effective October 1, 2026
