الذكاء الاصطناعي التوليدي في الانتخابات: رؤى للأنماط العالمية لصانعي السياسات 2025
Summary
The report analyzes 215 incidents of generative AI (GenAI) use during 2024 national elections across 50 countries. It finds that 80% of these countries experienced GenAI-related incidents, with 90% of cases involving the creation of synthetic content such as audio, images, and video. Approximately 69% of these incidents were classified as harmful, often involving impersonation or disinformation. While 38% of uses were deemed useful—such as for civic outreach or simplifying communications—nearly half of all incidents (46%) came from unknown sources, complicating accountability and transparency.
Key insights
- Generative AI was present in the vast majority of analyzed national elections in 2024, with 80% of the 50 countries that held competitive elections recording related incidents. The highest volume of incidents occurred in India and the United States, with 30 recorded cases each.
- The primary application of generative AI in elections is content creation, accounting for 90% of recorded incidents. This includes the production of synthetic audio, images, videos, and social media posts designed to be realistic and misleading.
- A significant portion of generative AI use in elections is anonymous or unattributable. In 46% of cases, the source was unknown; 25% were produced by political candidates and parties, 20% by foreign actors, and 9% by other sources such as lobby groups or individuals.
- Most generative AI applications in the studied elections had a negative impact, with 69% of incidents described as playing a harmful role. Harmful uses included adversarial impersonation, automated disinformation, and the use of bots to amplify low-quality content. Notably, 100% of the GenAI use attributed to foreign actors was reported as serving harmful purposes.
- Generative AI also had constructive applications in 38% of reported cases, including civic awareness (16%) and improving accessibility for marginalized or illiterate populations. For example, candidates in Japan used GenAI chatbots to interact with voters.
- The report highlights specific instances where GenAI severely impacted electoral integrity, such as in Romania, where coordinated efforts to distort national elections led to the annulment of presidential election results.
