AI Technology Dominates Election Strategy - 'Deep Fake' Waiting To Threaten The year 2024 has turned into a global election festival. Elections are in full swing in various countries of the world, starting from India and including the United States. Today, artificial intelligence (AI) technology, which is a challenge to mankind, has come into widespread use. Even in neighboring Pakistan, Imran Khan used AI technology to campaign for elections. AI technology has made it possible to create videos of living and non-living people actually talking to each other. In Tamil Nadu, late Chief Ministers Karunanidhi and Jayalalithaa are speaking in reincarnation and talking in front of their eyes and voice recordings have emerged in AI technology and have surprised the masses. In the Lok Sabha elections as well, candidates are expected to campaign using AI technology. Regarding this, Professor Kanagaraj, Head of the Department of Political Science, Government College of Arts and Sciences, Coimbatore said: Whenever new technology is introduced in the world, we can see the fear. With the advent of computers, people feared losing their jobs. Now AI technology has spawned such a fear. AI technology is like a double-edged sword. That is, the difference between a doctor wielding a knife and an anti-social force wielding a knife lies in the use of this AI technology. One of China's tactics was to destabilize Taiwan with a hundred thousand hackers. After India, elections are coming in America in November. Political watchers fear that superpowers like Russia, China, and Iran are likely to infiltrate US elections through AI technology.
First, the spread of fake information on deepfake technology will react during election time. AI technology can send billions of audio and video files to multiple cell phones at once. Some people are against social welfare, it is not good to publish video and audio using deepfake technology. Second, with generative AI technology, even ordinary people can create videos. Thirdly, rumour-mongering technology is also important to keep an eye on during election times.
Voters or the public should not immediately rely on information from videos or audios. He said that seeing reality should be analyzed from the angle of knowledge and the truth should be known. Coimbatore-based Jai Aravind, Co-Founder of Parsonate, India's first AI newsreader on television, said: "Those who are active in the Lok Sabha election campaign cannot go to certain places in person.
In a difficult situation, a candidate or party leader can be legally adopted by a digital avatar through audio and video cloning to reach every voter with their election campaign video. WhatsApp can carry video and audio to every voter's cell phone and carry out digital campaigning.
At the same time, there is an environment where hate is propagated through audio and videos using illegal deepfake technology. Deepfake tech videos like these have the potential to sway a candidate's victory or defeat in the final stages of elections.
Deepfake videos, audios and voice generators can use a leader's real speech to create hate speech with false content and go viral. Deepfake videos like this can easily confuse the voters as to what is true. AI technology has many good features. It should be used creatively, he said.
