In one paragraph

Chapter 58 of 2024 (FY2025 budget). Part MM, the artificial intelligence deceptive practices act, covers commercial use of a person's likeness or voice under Civil Rights Law 50-51 and extends the intimate-image actions in 52-b and 52-c to images created or altered by digitization (AI, machine learning or other computer-generated means). It also adds Election Law 14-106(5): political communications with materially deceptive media must disclose that the content has been manipulated, and depicted candidates may seek an injunction. Part TT establishes Empire AI at the University at Buffalo. Part J extends autonomous vehicle testing. Part MM took effect immediately.
