Artificial intelligence has revolutionized voice cloning, leading to a surge in deepfake audio impersonations. This technology poses a significant risk in the political arena, especially with the upcoming presidential election between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Experts are concerned about the potential for confusion among voters due to fabricated audio clips that mimic the candidates' voices.
AI tools have become adept at creating realistic voice clones by analyzing extensive datasets of public speeches. The sophistication of these deepfakes makes it increasingly difficult for even experts to distinguish between real and fake audio. As the technology evolves, the implications for trust in media and political communication become more profound, raising alarms about the future of public discourse.
