The Threat of AI-Enhanced Disinformation
AI technology is increasingly being used to create sophisticated disinformation campaigns, exemplified by Russia’s use of a software called Meliorator to generate fake online personas. This advancement raises concerns about the potential for AI to be indistinguishable from human behavior, making it harder for individuals to identify fake content. As AI continues to improve, disinformation bots could become as effective as having large numbers of trained intelligence agents, leading to a significant increase in manipulation capabilities. The fear is that these highly advanced bots could produce a staggering volume of misleading content, posing a substantial risk to public perception and trust in online information.
