What the petition asks
Ban the usage of generative AI images in product advertisement, as well as on websites/apps for product listings.
We think that the use of generative AI images in product advertisement leads to misleading the customers into buying products that do not match the actual products the customers receive. With increasingly more advanced AI technology, we feel it is necessary to protect the customers, especially those who are not familiar with the current AI abilities and are more vulnerable to falling victim to what we see as predatory tactics.
