More than 2 billion people went to the polls this year, providing us with unprecedented evidence of the types of AI-enabled threats we face and a golden window of opportunity to protect future elections. We should be reassured that there’s a lack of evidence that AI has changed the course of an election result, but there can be no complacency. Researchers and others monitoring these issues must urgently be given better access to social media platform data, in order to effectively assess and counter the most serious malicious voter-targeting activities moving forward.
