The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) approved a measure streamlining its ability to issue civil investigative demands in investigations relating to artificial intelligence (AI) use.
Such demands, which the FTC described as a compulsory process similar to a subpoena, will be issued at the agency’s discretion, it said in a press release Thursday.
The investigations will be directed at products and services that use or claim to be produced using AI or claim to detect its use, according to the agency. The FTC will issue the demands to obtain documents, information, and testimony relevant to its goals of consumer protection and regulating competition.
