Bill 119 HR 1027, also known as the Robocall Disclosure and Penalties Enhancement Act, aims to amend the Communications Act of 1934 in order to address the issue of robocalls using artificial intelligence. The bill requires that any robocall using artificial intelligence must disclose that it is a recorded message at the beginning of the call. This disclosure is intended to provide transparency to recipients and allow them to make informed decisions about whether to continue with the call.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions for enhanced penalties for violations involving artificial intelligence voice or text message impersonation. This is meant to deter individuals or entities from using artificial intelligence to deceive or mislead recipients through robocalls.

Overall, the goal of Bill 119 HR 1027 is to combat the growing problem of robocalls using artificial intelligence by increasing transparency and imposing stricter penalties for violations. By requiring disclosures and enhancing penalties, the bill aims to protect consumers from deceptive and unwanted robocalls.
