That kind of regulation has failed over and over. The obvious outcome is that every listing will have misleading AI "photos".

Define "failed".

If what ends up happening is that every listing has misleading AI photos but they have to disclose it, then also what ends up happening is nobody trusts them anymore. Consumers will know by default to not trust the photos.

In my eyes, thats a win since that's a better outcome than them secretly using AI photos.

Of course in my ideal world it would be outlawed altogether, But even if they were still allowed to use AI photos but were forced to disclose it, that's still a good first step.

What?

Is your claim that every photo will be labeled as AI-modified, or that people won't label AI-modified images? If the latter, just penalize the listing agents. Trivial.

The entire issue is that the platforms are already inundated with misleading, unlabeled AI-modified images.

Please offer proof of that obviously false claim.

And? Anything else and it would be a first amendment violation.

Come on, there is no such thing as "trace amounts of AI" in a photo of a building.
