AI technology challenges electoral integrity and democratic processes

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence presents significant challenges to legal frameworks and democratic processes, particularly regarding electoral campaigns. The technology allows for the creation of highly realistic digital reproductions, including a person's image, voice, and words, which can be used to bypass judicial restrictions or deceive voters.

This capability raises concerns about the distinction between factual information and manipulated content. Drawing on philosophical reflections regarding the relationship between freedom of opinion and factual truth, the emergence of AI-generated content complicates the ability of voters to identify manipulation in a digital environment.
