Meta forms team to stop AI from tricking voters

Facebook’s parent company, Meta, has announced the formation of a new team aimed at preventing artificial intelligence from being used to manipulate and trick voters.

The team, known as the AI Defense team, will focus on developing strategies to combat the spread of misinformation and the manipulation of political discourse on Meta’s platforms.

In recent years, there have been growing concerns about the impact of AI on elections and democratic processes. AI algorithms have been used to target specific groups of voters with tailored messages, spread fake news, and create deepfake videos that can sway public opinion.

Meta’s decision to form the AI Defense team signals a commitment to addressing these issues and working towards a more transparent and secure online environment for users.
