the role of ai in the 2024 elections stanford law school

Despite early public concerns about AI dramatically disrupting this year’s elections, the panelists agreed that most of those fears were not realized, while a more nuanced reality emerges — AI is permeating all aspects... As Persily noted, AI amplifies the abilities of both good and bad actors to achieve the same goals they’ve always had in elections. Wednesday, November 20, 2024 2:00pm to 3:00pm EST The year 2024 was dubbed “the largest election year in global history” with half the world’s population voting in national elections. Earlier this year, we hosted an event on “AI and the 2024 Elections” where scholars spoke about the potential influence of artificial intelligence on the election cycle– from misinformation to threats on election infrastructure. This webinar will offer a reflection and exploration of the impact of artificial intelligence on the 2024 election landscape.

This webinar is part of the 2024 U.S. Election Webinar series sponsored by the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation. As the United States heads to the polls in November, this series will convene scholars and practitioners to discuss down-ballot issues, election administration, election security, voter trends, and more. This event is online-only and registration is required. A recording will be made available after the event’s conclusion. The Ash Center encourages individuals with disabilities to participate in its events.

Instead of replacing expertise, artificial intelligence can amplify the effectiveness of skilled workers. “If social media misinformation is the equivalent of yelling ‘fire’ in a crowded theater, election misinformation is like doing so when there’s a horror movie playing and everyone’s already on edge.” —Rishi Iyengar, “What AI Will Do to Elections” (2024) With a number of high-stakes political races entering the home stretch, we thought we’d put together a collection of resources that explore the role artificial intelligence might play in elections. AI Reading: Preparing for Generative AI in the 2024 Election: Recommendations and Best Practices Based on Academic Research (Stanford Graduate School of Business and University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy, 2024) “It is particularly concerning that AI-manufactured content could be released very close to election day in order to generate fake scandals within a time frame that makes fact-checking difficult.

These ‘October surprises’ may be especially difficult to respond to if they are generated or shared by major political candidates.” ��1�O�'���!���~��C�c����`WdI҇��I;��lC��}�؊��]�� �o�7��+�ߨ� ��g/��u���n'�JPX���%�b�0ǒ{�Mٔ!@!�]��$\R�7�\�rï�ަG ����?���Cߗq"^y��>�����ωg��G��V�_������N�Su'��1u;���p��׉��k�U�+� q��D\T���K�|!߂�爳��� ��pR�'�+p\� �T?F���aɀC̀�8�� ����E�e���Iw����9k�܇�����>܋���P<*t�C� ��;pf;9G��a�a��p�(8!'�H�ژ�6 v�=h{v`�gOآ`3y�06b�s-R��VC���ݼwu���4�6c+v��el�-|3n2>�����il� ߀i��il7�p=��3R�<��F3��fl4����F��$�1V�j� W���Bi�4^*��JiAg���O����{��.�����\����� �N�$�d�D4K�[Zt<�2�*����h �P$���n���5�U�SZ�tr��ȼ�fZ�b��P>stream H�\��j�0 ��~ �CI�6v !��-�?������8�!o?�*̐�g�O���T����ɻ�'h;k<���k� ^;+V�NO�S��q" ����C� ž�|�*�U��W��"_��U,�T�0�襾y�G'��:�Y|L�}������ʬN endstream endobj 580 0 obj <> endobj 581 0 obj <> endobj 582... t�F��u� ��ƌ}���J����o���ph�#�~����@�I`�N8� ��p����FY�b]�� h#ܚ��th�3�2a��PT�^,Z�x t�?��~�c�.�D�-5G��9;U�.�ن��g����xG�s<��Y�O��x��f��8V��ۣ�^�:����X s9s����y�2`��,`2E���\������y^���_;I�E֗��͗83Sb�S���EwW����C�i��6`#6�S���=��C'6��T�{h��c+��/�K�2��m�*����:��xߤ:�Bvۚ�]�ܮT�| {�����x��^|������p�8���~b�C��!VZI� =�8���8���Yԍ^�?�ku�G����c/u�i�I&������1��8~��)~F;�$��)��/�'�x���Y�����<^����/��#���u��K/���m�?�ի8O�}di�Y6/+�u�y�=��̃KL�dh$��]uh�����êβ ����f?�x?�S"9~����MS���~�N�ݱ�}�ld-�rʮ� �2Α��I�R~O�T�Z� �������Te��Y�@���Y��U�1����/}%?�Gj/>O�������:�&����l��_qI}^�[t�����1 ]�g�I��߸L|W��Ô�t�e�bLc��X�v2ˣ3���Y+d>v��� U�9e�5J�u�|���(:/Dzb��s�fv ςl� �������D��1���x�;ȶ�Ma���26�U��}l:��f�9�T�Jx.iSԵKь���z]{�⏢S%�������u�i,oj\ְt��E�_XW��&�T0<���?w��Y3gTN�(�T��'�/5�?��-����\�%�P�5q]�ą����VH�D$q�U3�F�qe�� ��a�a�2��d~� U�z���T���lE�A�Qn�O����D�`�<�Xq[T,��D�]m�X�E��eh0D%o�x�e@�.{���P.���������K���Q+A�7=��9������0ebL��RK����x����*�Eؤ��H��K�/J��tA5�� ��˕�C��Sv���>xu ~j�����U��Ț�,�� �C���J�!]#�����%����+$<�b����d��Y�2�R=��JpHP�����yj��������J�ݹ�iFQ��ź�R��Inr�C᥆\����o}#�oXa�nۻ�i�����Z��`MY �V�(����京��<��1%�s; t��h�y%u�-���ӭYC��Ipݯפݙ��T:N���mse ^ך�FU@�̸;�INU�zV�T]QNgOu��� �0�ܸ��߲��&�ƴH��LO$��a�j����2�2e� ӟ�:�pK7��m��⦼�0�ZI/&���yi�����^^-����o�y�w�Ơ�B*�<�RqN�m(fmE� �wg2MF�T�� �V[I���/���ZHv �;N��ђ�y`�!}ݡ���m6 �ԉ|��oG ��#�#9�Po��ʿ���0�Y&'5֘j;�j�\j��U"'�4SE|��7�V(u�K>�F�bi2�*���2o�$��u��-��խ�� `1I:�%I�.�"�!��@�O����c�dyK�BnӴ�W��6����K� *��@�!�N�B�NJU��a���o��E&�"�I�P]���K ��u��3�k�8f�n��B��#�ԝ��7=*ʹ�r����0S� qkYE�g8�St*��]����Ǘ�...
