Dietram Scheufele has a “nightmare scenario” for next year’s election.
Just days before Election Day, “we’re going to see some piece of deep fake or really well-produced piece of information” based on artificial intelligence that influences voters enough to change the outcome of the election, only to find out it wasn’t true a week later.
“There’s no instant replay, there’s no rules like there are in the Super Bowl,” the University of Wisconsin-Madison professor told a room full of attendees at Memorial Union’s Tripp Commons Monday night. “It’ll just be the wrong call and we’ll all have to live with that.”
