In what is widely billed as America\u2019s first AI election in November, researchers warn that tech-enabled fakery could be used to steer voters toward or away from candidates \u2014 or even to avoid the polls altogether \u2014 stoking tensions in an already hyperpolarized environment.<\/p>\n<p>A recent wave of disinformation has renewed calls for tech giants \u2014 many of which have retreated from moderating social media content \u2014 to strengthen guardrails around generative artificial intelligence ahead of the vote. Last week, Elon Musk faced intense criticism for sharing a deepfake video featuring Vice President Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee, with his 192 million followers on X, formerly Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>In it, a voiceover mimicking Harris calls President Joe Biden senile; the voice then declares that she does not \u201cknow the first thing about running the country.\u201d The video carried no indication that it was parody \u2014 save for a laughing emoji. Only later did Musk clarify that the video was meant as satire.Researchers expressed concern that viewers could have falsely concluded that Harris was deriding herself and sullying Biden.<\/p>\n<p>AFP\u2019s fact-checkers have debunked other AI fakery that raised alarm.Last month, a manipulated video ricocheting across X appeared to show Biden cursing his critics \u2013 including using anti-LGBTQ slurs \u2014 after he announced he would not seek reelection and endorsed Harris for the Democratic nomination. A reverse image search showed the footage came from one of Biden\u2019s speeches, carried live by the broadcaster PBS, in which he denounced political violence after the July 13 assassination attempt on Trump.PBS said the doctored video was a deepfake that used its logo to deceive viewers.<\/p>\n<p>Weeks earlier, an image shared across platforms appeared to show police forcibly arresting Trump after a New York jury found him guilty of falsifying business records related to a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels. But the photo was a deepfake, digital forensics experts told AFP.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaljournal.com\/world\/lies-are-flooding-feeds-ai-fakery-raises-us-voter-manipulation-fears\/article\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaljournal.com\/world\/lies-are-flooding-feeds-ai-fakery-raises-us-voter-manipulation-fears\/article\">DJ<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/lies-are-flooding-feeds-ai-fakery-raises-us-voter-manipulation-fears\/\">\u2018Lies are flooding feeds\u2019: AI fakery raises US voter manipulation fears<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[3519,574,606,607,608,5758],"class_list":["post-132809","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-ai","tag-us","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien","tag-voter"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132809","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132809"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132809\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132809"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132809"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132809"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
