AI-generated deepfake videos, voice cloning emerge as potential threats during election season

Cybersecurity experts have expressed concerns about the potential misuse of artificial intelligence (AI) and deepfake technology in influencing voters during the upcoming general elections in India. The Election Commission of India has issued guidelines to combat fake news and misinformation. Deepfake videos and voice cloning are two tools that could be used to manipulate public opinion during the election campaign. Detecting and taking prompt action against such content is a challenge, as there is currently no technology capable of differentiating between original and fake content created using AI. Experts recommend engaging stakeholders and developing transparent guidelines to evaluate and approve AI tools. Additionally, law enforcement agencies are working closely with social media companies to identify and remove malicious content.
