Annual Data Conference 2024: Data, Deepfakes and Democracy
26th September 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM BST
Data and artificial intelligence has played an increasingly prominent role in elections in recent years. 2024 is packed with democratic elections, in countries including the UK, United States and India, but what impact will data and AI have – both positive and negative?
How are rogue actors spreading disinformation and deploying plausible deepfakes to influence elections – and undermine our trust in democracy more generally?
How can democratic societies counter those threats – and more importantly, how can we build better future democracies by regulating and controlling AI and data effectively?
Hear from experts on these and a range of other issues around the complex interplay between artificial intelligence, data and democracy.
