India to Draft Comprehensive AI Law Modeled on IT Act

Imagine you see a video or hear a voice that looks or sounds real, but it's actually made by a computer.

These are called deepfakes, and they can be used to trick people.

India's government is creating new rules to make sure these fake things are clearly labeled so people know they aren't real.

They are using a law called the IT Act as a guide for making a bigger, new law just for AI.

This new law will help everyone understand what is real and what is made by computers.

Companies that share this fake content online will have to label it so people can see it easily.

This is important because fake content can spread wrong information.

The government wants to make sure that as AI gets smarter, we have good rules to keep people safe and informed.

The new rules will only apply to things that are shared with the public, not private messages.

This is a big step in making sure AI is used responsibly.
