Some of the technology industry’s leading companies have teamed up to combat deceptive uses of artificial intelligence to spread misinformation in the 2024 elections.
The collective 20 companies announced the “Tech Accord to Combat Deceptive Use of AI in 2024 Elections” on Friday during the Munich Security Conference. The pact is a series of commitments from companies including Google, Meta, Amazon, and Adobe to work together to design tools that can detect AI-generated images or videos intended to deceive voters, also known as deepfakes. It is the latest effort by Silicon Valley to crack down on AI-generated misinformation in the primary and general elections while Congress is running out of time to pass anything substantial.
