THE DAILY ROUND UP WITH NINA | AI and elections - nbc

AI is poised to have a significant impact on the 2024 global elections, both positively and negatively. Generative AI can be used to create targeted messaging, automate election administration tasks, and educate voters. However, it also poses risks like the spread of disinformation through deepfakes, interference in election systems, and algorithmic bias.
Countries like Namibia need to be aware of these challenges and take steps to mitigate them. Strengthening election infrastructure, implementing robust security measures, and educating the public on media literacy are crucial. Namibia should also consider joining initiatives like the AI Elections Accord to coordinate a collective response against deceptive AI election content.
