AI Deepfake Ads Set to Screen During Australia’s Election

AI-Powered Deepfake Ads Raise Concerns for Election Integrity

The upcoming federal election in Australia will feature AI-generated deepfake ads, according to FBC News. These ads are designed to influence voters by mimicking real politicians, raising questions about authenticity and public trust. While officials are working to curb misuse, critics argue that these ads could confuse voters and spread disinformation. The push for regulations is intensifying.
