Several tech giants have signed an agreement to work collaboratively to address the issue of deceptive artificial intelligence (AI) being used to interfere with this year's global elections. 

The Details: A group of 20 companies, including Adobe, Amazon, Google, IBM, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI, Snap, TikTok, and X, pledged to create tools to counteract the distribution of manipulative AI-generated content created to mislead voters. The accord was announced on Friday at the Munich Security Conference. Besides committing to creating tools to detect misleading AI-generated content, the companies also pledged to work on educating the public and increasing transparency.

For Context: The increasing use of AI and deepfake technology has raised concerns about its ability to manipulate public opinion. Recently, deceitful AI impersonating President Biden urged New Hampshire voters not to participate in the state's primary election.

Key Quotes: Nick Clegg, president of global affairs at Meta Platforms, said, “I think the utility of this (accord) is the breadth of the companies signing up to it,” adding that without a concerted effort from big tech, they would “be stuck with a hodgepodge of different commitments.”

How the Media Covered It: Reuters (Center bias) added that generative AI is already being used to influence voters. USA TODAY (Lean Left bias) highlighted the potency of deepfake technology. Washington Examiner (Lean Right bias) included context on federal lawmakers’ current sentiments towards AI legislation.

A group of 20 tech companies announced on Friday they have agreed to work together to prevent deceptive artificial-intelligence content from interfering with elections across the globe this year.

The rapid growth of generative artificial intelligence (AI), which can create text, images and video in seconds in response to prompts, has heightened fears that the new technology could be used to sway major elections this year, as more than half of the world's population is set to head to the polls.

Under pressure from the White House and governments around the globe, major technology companies pledged Friday to crack down on artificial intelligence-generated deepfakes that could undermine the integrity of major democratic elections in the U.S. and overseas this year.

Google, Meta, TikTok and other companies said they would join forces to create tools to detect and debunk election deepfakes. They unveiled the accord as political and security leaders gathered at the Munich Security Conference in Germany.
