Russia-based Disinformation Operation Targeting US Election
A network of Russia-based websites is spreading fake stories targeting the US election using AI-powered operations. The operation aims to influence American voters and sow distrust ahead of the election by creating false narratives and spreading disinformation. The operation involves generating thousands of news articles using AI, attributed to fake journalists, and posting them on American-sounding websites. The network has expanded to include stories about UK politics and the Paris Olympics, with the goal of spreading false narratives globally.
