Meta fends off AI-aided deception as US election nears
==========

Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, has been able to disrupt deceptive influence operations on its platforms. Russia's attempts to use generative artificial intelligence in online deception campaigns have been unsuccessful. Meta expects Russia-backed online deception campaigns to target political candidates who support Ukraine in the upcoming US election. Meta looks at how accounts act rather than the content they post to identify deception. Meta shares its findings with Twitter and other internet firms to coordinate a defense against misinformation. Elon Musk, the owner of Twitter, has been accused of spreading falsehoods and political misinformation on the platform.
