Would This Fool you? A.I. Voice Clone Calls can Spread Election Misinformation

Irina Raicu, director, Internet ethics, quoted by ABC News/ WXYZ, Detroit.

Across the world voters are starting to be targeted by more and more of these clones and more citizens than ever will likely be tested this election cycle.

"We are in a situation now which is kind of a perfect storm; we have a year in which 60 countries are having elections," said Raicu.

"We have the social media platforms that have been totally inadequate at preventing the spread and then we have all the users, all of us, who are not educated enough who fall for them and who have this sort of trigger reaction sometimes to share things that shock us," she said.
