The proliferation of AI has made producing realistic fake images, audio and videos widely accessible, raising fears that the technology will be used to mislead voters.
OpenAI, Amazon.com Inc., Google and 17 other major players in artificial intelligence technology have formed a consortium to try to prevent AI from being used to deceive voters in upcoming global elections.
The companies announced the agreement at the Munich Security Conference on Friday, making a series of commitments to try to detect AI-enabled election misinformation, respond to it and raise public awareness about the potential for deception.
The proliferation of AI has made producing realistic fake images, audio and videos widely accessible, raising fears that the technology will be used to mislead voters in a year when elections will determine the leadership of 40% of the world's population. Last month, an AI-generated audio message that sounded like President Joe Biden attempted to dissuade Democrats from voting in the New Hampshire primary election.
