AI Forensics

In the lead-up to the 2024 European elections, our organization conducted extensive research and
analysis on the influence of emerging technologies on electoral integrity. We closely monitored the
use of generative AI in political campaigns, identifying instances where political parties like
Rassemblement National, Reconquête, and Les Patriotes deployed AI-generated imagery to
manipulate public opinion and amplify misleading narratives. Our efforts extended to analyzing social
media platforms like TikTok, where algorithmic features such as search suggestions were found to
promote biased or misleading content. We also examined the role of chatbots in electoral contexts,
highlighting the risks posed by misinformation and the need for more consistent, transparent, and
accountable content moderation across platforms. Through these activities, we aimed to raise
awareness of the threats to democratic processes and advocate for stronger regulatory measures to
safeguard election integrity.
