Alaska · AK SB 177 (33rd Alaska Legislature, 2023-2024)
- Status
- Expired
- Applies to
- Would have applied to campaign communicators and state agencies handling AI/data — but the bill never became law, so no obligations exist.
A 2023-2024 Alaska Senate bill that would have required disclosure of AI-generated deepfakes in campaign communications and addressed state cybersecurity and data privacy. It died without passing: the 33rd Alaska Legislature adjourned on May 15, 2024 with the bill still stuck in Senate committee referrals (Judiciary, then Finance). This entry is kept only as a historical record of a dead bill — it is NOT a law in effect and does not protect anyone today. The same subject matter is being pursued in the current 34th Legislature as AK SB 2.
Who is protected: Would have protected Alaska voters/recipients of campaign communications and individuals' data — but the bill never became law, so no protection exists.
