The Algorithm and the State: Inside India's Proposed AI Act That Could Ban Deepfakes, Mandate Watermarking, and Create a New Regulator—And Why Hollywood and Bollywood Are Both Watching

— On the morning of May 28, two days ago, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology released a 217‑page draft of legislation that will, if enacted, fundamentally reshape the relationship between artificial intelligence and the Indian state. The Artificial Intelligence (Regulation and Governance) Act, 2026—the "AI Act," as it is already being called—is the most ambitious regulatory intervention in the technology sector that any democratic government has attempted. It proposes to ban certain categories of AI‑generated content, including non‑consensual deepfake pornography and AI‑generated child sexual abuse material. It mandates that all AI‑generated or AI‑assisted content—images, videos, audio, text—that is published or distributed in India be watermarked or labelled in a way that identifies its synthetic origin. It creates a new statutory authority, the Artificial Intelligence Regulatory Authority of India, with the power to license, audit, and sanction the developers and deployers of high‑risk AI systems. And it imposes criminal penalties—including imprisonment—for the most serious violations of its provisions.
