Officials warn of communication gaps as AI fuels election influence
Original: Officials see gaps in election communications as AI makes foreign influence easier

The concern is that fabricated audio, video and text can spread quickly while official responses lag, leaving voters vulnerable to manipulated information during campaign periods.
Why now: AI-generated disinformation ahead of upcoming elections is raising fresh concerns among officials about public communication gaps.
