"Rising Concerns Over Deepfake Audio and Robocalls in US Politics"

A doctored audio message of US President Joe Biden urging voters in New Hampshire not to cast their ballots in the Democratic primary has raised concerns about the potential impact of deepfake technology on the upcoming US elections. Experts warn that audio deepfakes are particularly worrisome as they are easy to edit, cheap to produce, and difficult to trace. The fake Biden message highlights the use of deepfakes to influence public opinion and deter voters from participating in the electoral process. While efforts to regulate political deepfakes are underway, detection tools remain in their infancy, posing a significant challenge for election officials.
