Dominique Geissler Discusses the Impact of Deepfakes in Political Campaigns
AI-Generated Deepfakes: A Growing Threat to Political Integrity
MCML Junior Member Dominique Geissler, PhD student in the group of our PI Stefan Feuerriegel, was recently featured in Stern, where she spoke about the growing concerns surrounding AI-generated deepfakes in the political sphere.
In the interview, Dominique emphasized how these technologies can be used to manipulate public opinion, spread misinformation, and potentially interfere with democratic processes. She called for more awareness and stronger countermeasures to reduce the risks of deepfakes, urging policymakers and tech companies to work together to ensure the integrity of political campaigns in the digital age. The discussion comes at a time when deepfakes are becoming more sophisticated and difficult to detect, making their impact on elections and political discourse an urgent issue.
