A coalition named Campaign to Ban Deepfakes, with an online website, comprising major organizations such as Encode Justice, The Centre for Human-Compatible Artificial Intelligence, the Future of Life Institute, SAG-AFTRA, Wave, StakeOutAI, and the Women's Media Center, is publicly launching to advocate for the prohibition of deepfakes across the supply chain. This initiative comes amid growing concerns about the use of AI-generated deepfakes, described as potentially harmful, to spread false information, particularly in the context of elections. Notably, NPR reported efforts to detect and combat misinformation during the #2024election season. A NYC bill aims to ban the use of AI in elections for creating intentionally manipulated depictions of candidates' speech or conduct, reflecting a broader attempt to prohibit deceptive imagery and address the challenges posed by AI in disseminating misinformation.

Deepfakes are a poorly understood and potentially harmful application of technology, and I'm sure we'll realize that even more in the coming election year. That said, this is pretty awesome? Q&A that keeps a learner engaged, teaches real content, adds real value. Love it. https://t.co/KYsZYeDczI
