周三,美国参议院商务委员会以14票赞成、12票反对的结果否决了一项阻止联邦通信委员会(FCC)执行政治广告新披露规则的提案。拟议的规则规定,广播电台和电视台的政治广告必须披露是否在创建内容时使用了人工智能。

美国联邦通信委员会本月早些时候提出了这些规则,并邀请各方在10月中旬之前对其发表评论。参议院商务委员会主席、参议员玛丽亚·坎特威尔表示,联邦通信委员会可能不会在11月总统选举前完成这些规定。

共和党参议员表达了担忧,并试图增加禁令

共和党参议员对政治广告中滥用人工智能的可能性表示担忧,并试图禁止此类立法。然而,委员会的决定支持联邦通信委员会的建议。华盛顿新出现的担忧是,人工智能编写的材料可能会在2024年的选举中混淆选民。

美国联邦通信委员会主席Jessica Rosenworcel指出了人工智能的威胁,包括产生“深度伪造”或操纵图像、视频或音频的能力,以描绘他们不是的人。Rosenworcel补充说,美国联邦通信委员会自20世纪30年代以来一直参与信息披露。她进一步表示,“这是防止人工智能被坏人用来在我们的选举中传播混乱和困惑的重要一步。”

拟议的规则将要求广播电台和电视台、有线电视运营商以及卫星电视和广播提供商披露人工智能在内容生成中的使用情况。然而,值得注意的是,美国联邦通信委员会对基于互联网或社交媒体的广告没有权力,也没有监管流媒体服务。该机构已经通过现行规定处理了政治机器人电话中欺骗性人工智能的问题。

更多基于人工智能的欺诈行为凸显了监管的必要性

今年1月,一个冒充拜登的网络钓鱼机器人电话被用来压制新罕布什尔州民主党初选中对拜登的投票。事件发生后,一名民主党政治顾问被指控拨打电话。

此外,联邦选举委员会(FEC)强调了人工智能生成内容的使用。联邦选举委员会目前正在审查一份修改规则的请愿书,以表明现行法律禁止联邦候选人虚假陈述。这些包括在竞选信息中故意误导人工智能内容。

此外,参议员Mark Warner(弗吉尼亚州民主党人)和Marsha Blackburn(田纳西州共和党人)提出的《2024年促进美国在标准领域的领导地位法案》因其进展而受到称赞。该法案旨在重新获得美国在制定人工智能(AI)和其他重要新兴技术(CET)国际标准方面的主导地位。

The Full Story of How Crypto Unicorn Blockstream Is Mired in Serious Fraud Allegations

This article details serious allegations of fraud against Bitcoin infrastructure company Blockstream, founded by Bitcoin pioneer Adam Back. In June 2024, investigative account NatInfoSec published a report accusing Blockstream's mining note (BMN) program of potentially operating a multi-billion dollar scheme with Ponzi-like characteristics. The core allegations focus on Blockstream Mining Notes (BMNs), which offer investors fixed annual yields up to approximately 20% from Bitcoin mining. NatInfoSec's investigation raises several key issues: 1. **Suspicious Hashrate & Payout Capacity**: The analysis suggests Blockstream would need 20-45 EH/s of mining power to cover its BMN obligations, but its public dashboard shows only around 15 EH/s. Furthermore, no verifiable public evidence (e.g., grid connection records, import data) was found to support the massive mining operation required. 2. **Questionable Payout Source**: The BMN contract allows Blockstream to use Bitcoin from *any source* (Substitute Performance BTC) to fulfill investor payouts, raising concerns that payouts may not come from actual mining revenue. 3. **High-Risk, Fixed Returns**: Offering ~20% fixed yields in the volatile, cyclical Bitcoin mining industry is viewed as highly unusual and requires clear explanation. 4. **Undisclosed Criminal Record of Key Figure**: Christopher William Cook, a key figure in Blockstream's mining operations and CEO of spin-off Exacore, was found to have a federal felony conviction for mail fraud in 2008, a fact not disclosed in BMN offering documents. His background was also allegedly embellished. 5. **Potential Contagion to BSTR SPAC**: Questions were raised about whether these liabilities and Cook's record should have been disclosed in the SEC filings for Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company (BSTR), a separate Adam Back-associated firm planning a SPAC merger. The crypto community is divided. BitMEX Research validated Cook's criminal record and expressed concern over the high yields but found other evidence lacking or misleading, noting the legal separation between BMN, Blockstream, and BSTR. Blockstream defenders, like Samson Mow, argue the mining is real. Critics, however, emphasize the lack of independent, verifiable proof of the mining operation's scale and the true source of investor payouts. The article concludes that BMN remains shrouded in key unanswered questions regarding its actual size, the verifiability of its underlying mining assets and payouts, the source of its high yields, and the full role and disclosure concerning Chris Cook. Blockstream had not issued a comprehensive response at the time of writing.
