Ministry statement published 17 October 2026.

What happened

Komdigi says it is studying a ministerial rule under which AI developers could mark the authenticity of AI-made video and other digital media. The statement discusses provenance and deepfakes; it does not establish an enacted label duty for music.

ALUN's view

ALUN's view: provenance can help people tell authentic from synthetic media, but the proposal's scope and its effect on music releases are still unknown.

What is still unclear

This is a ministry statement about a rule being studied. No draft text, adoption date, technical standard or music-specific duty was verified.

What it may mean for you

• Musicians and cultural workers: Do not treat a possible media-label rule as a current music-release requirement.
• Institutions: Keep records of media provenance while waiting for actual rule text.
• Policy makers: Check who would label what, and under which instrument, before calling it an obligation.
