House provenance-data bill — generative AI tools would have to label synthetic content, with corresponding obligations for large platforms and capture-device makers.

What it does

Establishes requirements for generative AI tool providers to apply provenance data to synthetic content. Sets obligations for AI providers, large online platforms, and capture device manufacturers.

Analyst read

House provenance bill missed the Mar 27 deadline and was kicked back to Rules — Senate companion SB 3263 (Edly-Allen) is the live vehicle, so HB 4711 is now a backup that will move only if Senate side fails.
