| This year, over 2 billion people will be voting in a record-breaking number of elections around the world. That's a quarter of the global population.
It will also mark the first major electoral cycle in the era of widespread generative AI. During this dizzying time of disinformation, propaganda and truth-bending rhetoric, how do we distinguish between what is real and what is fake?
Join the Guardian's UK technology editor Alex Hern with an expert panel as they explore the risk that AI could seriously disrupt the democratic process. Speakers include Katie Harbath, founder and chief executive officer of the technology policy firm Anchor Change and Imran Ahmed, chief executive officer of the Center for Countering Digital Hate. More speakers to be announced. |
