The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has proposed 12 amendments to the 2023 codes of conduct aimed at regulating the use of artificial intelligence (AI) during elections. The amendments target political parties, media organizations, and election observers, seeking to curb the misuse of AI-generated content and prevent deceptive deepfakes. Media outlets would be required to disclose AI-generated content, while political parties must label AI-manipulated campaign materials. The ECP has invited public feedback on these proposals by November 20, 2026. The amendments also include provisions for monitoring by regulatory authorities and require election observers to report any AI-related manipulation. The ECP emphasizes its constitutional duty to ensure fair elections and prevent misleading practices.
