Summary: With elections taking place in over 50 countries in 2024, there is a growing concern about the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) to spread disinformation, including AI deep fakes of candidates. Tech companies are making commitments to combat the misuse of AI in elections, including collaborating with civil society and academia, increasing transparency, and supporting media literacy efforts.

However, these commitments have some limitations, such as vague guidance and enforcement challenges. Companies need to work with governments and civil society to effectively address the risks and protect the integrity of elections.
