"Democratic Consultant's Admission: The Threat of Deepfake Biden Robocalls to Democracy"
Political consultant Steve Kramer behind fake Biden robocalls in New Hampshire claims he was trying to raise awareness about the potential misuse of artificial intelligence in elections, rather than influence the primary outcome. Kramer paid a magician to create the recorded message, which mimicked Biden's voice and falsely suggested voter suppression. Authorities are investigating the calls for potential violation of voter suppression laws. Kramer, who has decades of campaign experience, believes his actions will lead to better regulation of AI in politics, despite facing scrutiny and potential legal consequences.
