🚨 China-backed hacking groups may use AI to impact elections in US, India, warns Microsoft
2024 is an election year. India is gearing up for the Lok Sabha polls starting later this month. The US presidential elections will be held in November this year and South Korea will also go to polls. With so many countries going to polls, there’s an opportunity for threat actors to interfere in the process. Microsoft has issued a warning and said that China may look to impact elections. “With major elections taking place around the world this year, particularly in India, #SouthKorea and the United States, we assess that China will, at a minimum, create and amplify AI-generated content to benefit its interests,” said Clint Watts, general manager, #Microsoft Threat Assessment Centre.
