Euronews Next – Spain has proposed a new draft law that would fine AI companies up to €35 million for failing to properly label content as AI-generated. The legislation is aimed at promoting transparency and consumer protection, particularly in digital media, advertising, and online platforms where generative AI tools are increasingly used to produce realistic but synthetic content.

The law mandates that all AI-generated content must be clearly and visibly marked, and that failure to comply would constitute a serious regulatory offense. The article notes this proposal aligns with broader EU efforts to increase transparency and accountability in AI usage under the Digital Services Act and AI Act.

Legal experts believe this move could have far-reaching implications for developers, media outlets, and platforms operating in Spain and across the EU. The legislation is expected to undergo parliamentary review in the coming months.
