Russia Leads AI-Driven Election Interference, U.S. Intelligence Reports

U.S. intelligence officials reveal that Russia, Iran, and China are using AI to influence the upcoming presidential election, with Russia producing the most content.

Russia is generating the most AI content to influence the U.S. presidential election, aiming to support Donald Trump and undermine Kamala Harris.
Iran and China are also using AI to create disinformation, with Iran targeting divisive issues like immigration and the Israel-Gaza conflict.
China focuses on amplifying divisive U.S. political issues but is not specifically targeting the election outcome.
The U.S. intelligence community views AI as an accelerant for influence operations rather than a revolutionary tool.
Russian operatives have staged videos and doctored speeches to spread disinformation, including a fake video of Kamala Harris involved in a hit-and-run accident.
