Meta: AI Misinformation Minimal in Elections - Meta states that AI-generated content made up less than 1% of election-related misinformation on its platforms in 2024. Studies from major global elections indicated limited AI impact on spreading disinformation, and the company asserted that its policies effectively managed AI content risks. Efforts such as rejecting 590,000 image requests were highlighted to prevent deepfakes.
Generative AI's role in propaganda was marginal, with existing strategies preventing significant influence from covert operations. Meta also criticized other platforms for hosting misleading videos linked to Russian influence operations. Overall, the company maintained that its measures successfully mitigated the risks posed by AI-generated content.
