Artificial Intelligence Public Awareness and Education Campaign Act

This bill requires the Secretary of Commerce to create a public awareness and education campaign about artificial intelligence (AI) for people in the United States, covering its benefits, risks, and prevalence in daily life.

Sec. 2, AI campaign: Within 180 days, the Secretary, with other federal agencies, must establish a campaign to provide information on AI's prevalence and improve AI consumer literacy, which means understanding AI's capabilities and limitations.

The campaign must set key performance indicators like audience reach and engagement, facilitate access to information on legal rights regarding AI, promote best practices for detecting AI-generated media (like deepfakes and chatbots), and target vulnerable populations like senior citizens against AI scams.

Outreach materials must cover AI tasks (e.g., classification, prediction, content generation), productivity applications, commercial uses, consumer product limitations, domain-specific uses (e.g., personal finance, healthcare), data protection best practices, and workforce opportunities including in government and higher education.

The Secretary must consult the Small Business Administration for small business elements, consider regional and subpopulation needs, and coordinate with state and local governments, nonprofits, and private enterprises.

Materials must be updated annually to reflect innovations or new concerns, and be disseminated in multiple languages, via a mobile-friendly website, and through TV, radio, and internet ads, with possible help from private or nonprofit organizations.

The Secretary must consult academic, industry, community, and government stakeholders, including officials from the Consumer Product Safety Commission, Education, NIST, NSF, NTIA, and SBA.

Annual reports to Congress must include key performance indicators, material summaries, and recommendations, until the campaign ends 5 years after enactment. No additional funds are authorized for this act.
