## AI Listing Photos Concern
New York’s Department of State warned about a sharp rise in AI-generated listing photos that create misleading or exaggerated property representations.
## California Disclosure Law
California’s Assembly Bill 723, which took effect in January, requires agents to disclose when listing photos have been digitally altered and provide originals.
