AI-Generated Deepfakes: A Growing Threat to Political Integrity
Our Junior Member, Dominique Geissler, was recently featured in Stern, where she spoke about the growing concerns surrounding AI-generated deepfakes in the political sphere.

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.
