US Politics

AI Was Everywhere in 2024âs Elections, but Deepfakes Were Only Part of the Picture

Summary

Nutrition label

85% Informative

In 2024 , 3.7 billion eligible voters in 72 countries had the chance to go to the polls.

Many feared that deepfakes and artificial intelligence-generated misinformation would overwhelm the democratic processes.

Peter Bergen : The dreaded âdeath of truthâ has not materialized, at least, not due to AI .

But candidates are eagerly adopting AI in many places where it can be constructive, if used responsibly.

OpenAI used its own AI models to disrupt an Iranian foreign influence operation aimed at sowing division before the U.S. presidential election.

As AI gets more powerful and capable, it is likely to infiltrate every aspect of politics.

All it takes is for one party, one campaign, one outside group or even an individual to see an advantage in automation.
