Target: Federal Communications Commission (FCC), major news media organizations, and the Department of Defense
Goal: We call on regulatory bodies and news organizations to implement clear policies and oversight regarding the use of AI-generated content, ensuring transparency and accountability in all media reporting.
The use of AI-generated images by One America News (OAN) during a segment on military recruitment is a troubling example of how artificial intelligence can be misused to mislead viewers and distort public perception. The images, which appeared to depict women soldiers in combat, were not authentic and were not provided by the Department of Defense. OAN has not responded to inquiries about its policies on AI-generated content, raising serious concerns about transparency and ethical standards in news reporting.
In an era of rapidly advancing technology, the integrity of news media is more important than ever. The public deserves to know when images or videos are artificially created, especially when used to support claims about sensitive topics such as military recruitment. Without proper oversight, the spread of AI-generated misinformation threatens to erode public trust, manipulate opinion, and undermine democratic discourse.
We urge the FCC, news organizations, and government agencies to take immediate action to establish clear guidelines and enforce transparency in the use of AI-generated content. Only through accountability and openness can we ensure that the media serves the public interest and upholds the truth.
