AI-generated political ads flood Victoria’s election, raising concerns over misinformation and voter manipulation, warns expert Dr Karen Sutherland
‘It’s getting worse because the technology is just so accessible now.’ AI-generated political ads are flooding social media ahead of Victoria’s election.
Dr Karen Sutherland from the University of the Sunshine Coast warns that detecting real from fake content is becoming increasingly difficult.
Outrageous videos, like a woman giving birth by the roadside, are being shared despite never happening.
This misinformation could mislead voters and impact political transparency and accountability.
Authorities may need to enforce stricter regulations to combat the spread of AI-generated misinformation.
