Hybrid | Bots v Ballots: AI and the 2024 Election

September 12 @ 7:30 PM PDT

Bots v Ballots AI and the 2024 Election

How worried should we be about AI and the election? As advances in generative artificial intelligence stand to disrupt elections, we ask what the latest developments mean in 2024 and for the future of democracy. AI has been used to doctor photos, create deep fakes, manipulate candidates’ voices and seed false information about voting among targeted groups—and will only ramp up as Election Day approaches. How are AI companies, elections officials, and the media preparing? And is it all just risk or can AI also be used to improve democracy?

In conversation with California State Senator Scott Wiener, California Common Cause Executive Director Jonathan Mehta Stein, and Encode Justice founder Sneha Revanur, KQED’s Rachael Myrow and The Guardian‘s Rachel Leingang will explore what’s happening right now and what ramifications it will have on campaigns, journalists, voters, national security and democracy.
