Topics
主持人指出，尽管人们对AI干预选举的潜力感到担忧，但实际上AI的影响非常有限，低于预期。几个关键事件，例如针对拜登的deepfake机器人电话，以及一些AI生成的假名人代言和政治迷因，虽然引起了一些关注，但并未对选举结果产生实质性影响。 Ori Hoffman认为，生成式AI工具的快速发展对民主构成了威胁，尤其是在重要选举期间。 Yuval Noah Harari则警告说，AI生成的虚假人物可能会破坏社会信任，就像假币威胁金融体系一样。 Rachel Tobac指出，目前的深伪技术更多地被用于引发情绪反应，而不是真正误导人们。 美国国家情报总监办公室的报告显示，AI确实辅助了外国影响力行动，但尚未彻底改变它们。 Sunny Gandhi则认为，未来AI模型的改进可能会加剧虚假信息威胁，因此需要保持警惕。
