SB 806 Pennsylvania Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act providing for unfair methods of competition and for enforcement and penalties.

SB 806 amends Pennsylvania's Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law to require businesses and creators to clearly disclose when content (such as text, images, audio, or video) is generated by artificial intelligence before presenting it to consumers. The bill defines "clear and conspicuous" disclosure as requiring the notice to be easily noticeable in size, color, location, and duration - without being hidden, contradicted, or obscured by other information. This applies to all AI-generated content distributed to consumers, including online posts, ads, or product descriptions. The law takes effect 60 days after enactment.
