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.

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.
