The US FTC said on September 25 that it would launch "Operation AI Comply" as part of a new round of "enforcement actions" to crack down on five companies that "rely on artificial intelligence for deceptive or unfair practices that harm consumers". "It is against the law to use artificial intelligence tools to deceive, mislead or defraud others," Lina Khan, chair of the US FTC, said in a statement, adding that enforcement actions made clear that "artificial intelligence is not exempt from the law".
