The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, whether his Department plans to mandate the use of AI labelling tools to differentiate between real and synthetic content.

Answered by Feryal Clark

The Government recognises that solutions to enable users and institutions to determine what media is real and what is AI-generated can help in tackling a range of AI risks, and are examining the robustness of a range of such solutions in this space.

The Government is also making sure our statute book is ready for the age of AI and its huge opportunities. The Government will update Parliament in due course.
