Dank neuester Entwicklungen im Bereich der KI sind hochentwickelte maschinelle Systeme durch das Scannen und Verändern bestehenden Fotomaterials in der Lage, Fotos oder Videos zu generieren und sie mit einem Kontext auszustatten, den es nie gegeben hat.

Diese so genannten "Deep Fakes" sind eine reale Gefahr für Demokratien, denn sie haben die Macht, Wahlmanipulation auf ein ganz neues Level zu heben und die Entscheidungen nichtsahnender Bürger massiv und grundlegend zu beeinflussen.
