June 26, 2026 El Mandato de la Etiqueta: Cuando "Hecho con IA" se Vuelve un Requisito para Publicar [En Español]
La era de la divulgación de imágenes con IA ya es realidad. La ley de Nueva York sobre intérpretes sintéticos entró en vigor el 9 de junio (multa de $1,000 por la primera infracción y $5,000 después), la obligación de marcado legible por máquina del Artículo 50 de la Ley de IA de la UE aplica desde el 2 de agosto (con una ventana de gracia hasta el 2 de diciembre para sistemas ya en el mercado), y la Comisión Federal de Comercio aplica la divulgación bajo la Sección 5 con multas de hasta unos $53,088 por infracción. Nadia, David y Emma recorren los cuatro órdenes de impacto: cómo la divulgación se vuelve un requisito de compra, le pone nuevo precio a la exactitud y se convierte en una puerta para publicar en los marketplaces, mientras un mosaico legal estatal (Colorado acaba de mover su ley a enero de 2027) sube la vara al estándar más estricto.

June 26, 2026 The Label Mandate: When "Made with AI" Becomes a Listing Requirement
The disclosure era for AI imagery just went operational. New York's first-in-the-nation synthetic-performer ad law took effect June 9 (civil penalty $1,000 first violation / $5,000 after), the EU AI Act's Article 50 machine-readable marking obligation lands August 2 (with a narrow grace period to December 2 for systems already on the market), and the FTC is enforcing undisclosed AI under Section 5 at up to roughly $53,088 per violation. Nadia, David, and Emma walk the four orders of impact: how labeling turns provenance into a procurement spec, reprices accuracy as the real differentiator, and becomes a marketplace listing gate while a state-by-state legal patchwork (Colorado just pushed its law to January 2027) raises the bar to the strictest common denominator. The takeaway: the picture is no longer the asset; the picture's verifiable history is. More at ai.advertflair.com/podcast

June 16, 2026 Cuando la Búsqueda Empieza a Alucinar: la Barra de Imágenes IA de Amazon Choca con el 2 de Agosto de la UE [En Español]
El 3 de junio, Amazon convirtió la barra de búsqueda de su tienda en un generador de imágenes con IA en tiempo real: escribir "camisa de franela" ahora crea imágenes de productos que no existen, empezando por ropa y hogar en iPhone y Android. Seis semanas después, el 2 de agosto, entran en vigor las reglas de transparencia del Artículo 50 de la Ley de IA de la UE — y NO se retrasaron con el Ómnibus Digital (solo la marca de agua de sistemas previos se corrió al 2 de diciembre). Nadia Reyes, David Okafor y Emma Sinclair siguen la reacción en cadena cuatro órdenes hacia abajo: de la búsqueda generativa, a las marcas que pierden su primera impresión, a la honestidad que gana una prima de confianza, a la procedencia convertida en reja de los marketplaces — y por qué la imagen construida sobre datos reales del producto (geometría CAD, color verificado) está por superar en precio a la alucinación más bonita.

June 16, 2026 When Search Starts Hallucinating: Amazon's AI Image Bar Meets the EU's August 2 Deadline
On June 3, Amazon turned its shopping search bar into a real-time AI image generator — typing "flannel shirt" now conjures product images that don't exist, starting with apparel and home goods on iOS and Android. Six weeks later, on August 2, the EU AI Act's Article 50 transparency rules take effect and were NOT delayed by the Digital Omnibus (only watermarking for pre-existing systems slid to December 2). Nadia Reyes, David Okafor, and Emma Sinclair trace the chain reaction four orders deep: from generative search, to brands losing their first impression, to honesty earning a trust premium, to provenance hardening into a marketplace listing gate — and why imagery built on real product data (CAD geometry, verified color) is about to out-price the prettiest hallucination.

June 10, 2026 The Disclosure Era Begins: New York's AI Ad Law, the EU Countdown, and the Provenance Moat
New York's AI advertising disclosure law just took effect, the EU AI Act's transparency rules land August 2nd, and the FTC's new AI enforcement unit is handing out $53K-per-violation penalties. Nadia Reyes, David Okafor, and Emma Sinclair trace the chain reaction four orders deep: from compliance labels, to vendor audit trails, to why AI imagery built on real product data (CAD, verified color) is about to earn a trust premium over prompt-generated visuals — and how marketplaces could turn provenance into a listing requirement.
