Tech giants sign accord to combat AI-generated 'deep fake' election year info
- xenospn 3y agoI might be jaded, but I don’t believe a single thing Meta or TikTok say. I guess we’ll see by October.
- raxxorraxor 3y agoWell, in the AI space Meta is kind of the good guy in sharing developments and models. Not that this particular list would feature any saints.

- dorkwood 3y agoThis looks like an attempt to build good will with the governments of the world so that their platforms don't get crushed by regulation in the coming years. And also a way to give their supporters ammunition to fight a total AI ban by noting all the good and necessary uses of AI. The accord points out several times, for example, how AI technology can be used not only to generate deep fakes, but also to detect them.
- southernplaces7 3y agoConsidering just how effective their claimed attempts at stopping the spread of ordinary fraud, scams, fake reports and so forth have been up to now, color me doubtful as fuck about their pulling it off with AI deepfakes. If anything, these very companies will be what most helps the spread of this kind of content, for elections and so many other things. In brief, this pledge smells of heavy duty PR bullshit for the sake of feel-good political goodwill.
