| 36. | Recent technological developments in generative AI have enabled the creation and widespread use of artificial intelligence systems capable of generating text, images, videos, or other synthetic content. While such developments may bring many new opportunities, they may lead to specific systemic risks in the context of elections. Notably, generative AI can be abused to mislead voters or to manipulate electoral processes by creating and disseminating inauthentic, biased, misleading synthetic content (including text, audio, still images and video) regarding political actors, false depiction of events, election polls, contexts or narratives. Generative AI systems can also produce incorrect, incoherent, or fabricated information, so called “hallucinations”, that misrepresent reality, and which can potentially mislead voters.
