AMAC and TruPlay’s FAITH First Alliance Endorses Senior Chatbot Protection Act of 2026

BOHEMIA, N.Y. — The FAITH First Alliance, founded by the Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC) and TruPlay, today announced its endorsement of the Senior Chatbot Protection Act of 2026 (S. 5117), bipartisan legislation designed to establish stronger protections for older Americans as artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into everyday life.

Artificial intelligence offers significant benefits, from helping consumers find information and access services to making technology easier and more efficient. But increasingly sophisticated AI chatbots and voice assistants can also make it difficult for users to distinguish between a real person and an automated system.

For older Americans, that distinction can become especially important when conversations involve healthcare, finances, retirement, legal matters, or other sensitive decisions.

The Senior Chatbot Protection Act would require clearer disclosure when consumers are interacting with artificial intelligence, strengthen protections for sensitive conversations and personal information, address deceptive or manipulative chatbot practices, and create additional safeguards when AI systems are involved in high-stakes medical, financial, and legal decisions.

These protections could be particularly valuable for AMAC members, who increasingly encounter AI while researching Medicare and Social Security, managing retirement finances, seeking healthcare information, communicating with businesses, shopping online, and accessing digital services.

“Older Americans should be able to benefit from artificial intelligence without wondering whether they are being deceived, manipulated, or putting their personal information at risk,” said Rebecca Weber, CEO of AMAC. “The Senior Chatbot Protection Act establishes reasonable guardrails while allowing innovation to continue. That balance reflects the principles the FAITH First Alliance was created to advance.”

The legislation aligns with the mission of the FAITH First Alliance — Freedom in Artificial Intelligence and Technology for Humanity, which was established by AMAC and TruPlay to advocate for an AI future centered on human dignity, transparency, accountability, privacy, freedom, and protection from technological manipulation.

Together, AMAC and TruPlay believe technological innovation and consumer protection should advance side by side.

Artificial intelligence should remain a tool that serves people—not a replacement for human judgment or an opportunity to exploit vulnerable users.
