A.I. Pioneer Raises Alarm on 'Tsunami of Misinformation,' Launches Tools to Combat Fakes Ahead of 2023 Elections

Oren Etzioni was once optimistic about A.I. but now worries A.I.-generated fakes could overwhelm upcoming elections.

Etzioni founded the nonprofit TrueMedia.org in January to fight the threat of A.I.-generated disinformation.
-
On Tuesday, TrueMedia.org released free tools for identifying fake and doctored images, audio, and video.

The tools are designed to quickly determine whether media files should be trusted.

Etzioni says there's a good chance we'll see a "tsunami of misinformation" in the many elections happening this year.
