The pre-eminent philosopher (and recently deceased) Daniel Dennett stated recently that "Large Language Models #LLM are the most dangerous technology ever developed, capable of leading to the collapse of not just #democracy but of #civilization ... This technology can flood the world with manipulative fake people ... Who controls your attention, controls you. We are in danger of losing our free will and being turned into puppets."
"With AI #deepfakes, a candidate’s image can be smeared, or softened. Voters can be steered toward or away from candidates — or even to avoid the polls altogether. But perhaps the greatest threat to #democracy, experts say, is that a surge of AI deepfakes could erode the public’s trust in what they see and hear."
#DHS will be the 1st in the fed govt to roll out a plan to integrate #AI into a variety of uses, from #crime to helping #disaster survivors.
DHS has seen the opportunities & risks of #ArtificialIntelligence firsthand. It found a #trafficking victim by using AI to create an image of the child 10yrs older. But it has also been tricked into investigations by AI created #DeepFakes.
