AI Disinformation Threatens Democracy as US Leads Global AI Resolution

As the 2024 election season approaches, AI-generated disinformation poses a significant risk to democratic processes worldwide. We explore how generative AI is creating convincing deepfakes that mislead voters. Meanwhile, the US spearheads a historic UN resolution to ensure equal access to AI technology, addressing the urgent need for global consensus on safe AI systems. Additionally, we discuss the implications of Europe's new AI Act and the heated debate over AI regulation sparked by Vinod Khosla's criticism of California's SB 1047. Join us as we navigate the intersection of technology, governance, and ethics in the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence.
