Is it acceptable to use AI to impersonate a candidate during an election and make it appear as though they did or said something they did not, without disclosing that the video is AI-generated or satire? news.bloomberglaw.com/litigation/haw…

Does health misinformation kill? Yes. Our latest paper is finally out with evidence of a causal link between exposure to antivax content on Xitter and deaths. Effects of antivaccine tweets on COVID-19 vaccinations, cases, and deaths link.springer.com/article/10.114…

Political disinfo on social media has overall negligible effects. I always wondered if such small effects, when targeting battleground states, could influence close elections. A new paper analyzing voter-suppression ads shows this was the case in 2016: doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Latest working paper 🧪 w/ Shalmoli Ghosh and @mdeverna2 shows that AI porn and NSFW deepfakes targeting women are being commoditized A Marketplace for AI-Generated Adult Content and Deepfakes Preprint: doi.org/10.48550/arXiv…
🚨 New working paper 🚨 What happens when you add money + competition to generative AI creation? On Civitai—a prominent platform for gen-AI content/tools w. millions of users—you get a growing marketplace for NSFW requests and a nontrivial stream of deepfakes.

Our latest paper in @ScienceMagazine warns about malicious AI swarms, agents capable of adaptive influence campaigns at scale. We already observed some in the wild (picture). AI is a real threat to democracy. #SciencePolicyForum #ScienceResearch 🧪 Paper: doi.org/10.1126/scienc…
AI now allows propaganda campaigns to reach unprecedented scale and precision. Our new paper in @ScienceMagazine Magazine explains how a disruptive threat is emerging: swarms of collaborative, malicious AI agents. We describe the potential risks and some interventions for this
