As a tireless producer of information, including disinformation, AI poses real risks to elections going forward. As we find ourselves at a crossroad with machines that seem like they can think, Lee Rainie, director of the Imagining the Digital Future Center and Dr. Sturg talk about several AI-related issues on the horizon. 

Plus, Dr. Sturg talks about obfuscation - using fancy or empty words to avoid taking controversial positions. 

The Imagining the Digital Future website has results from surveys and some position statements about the likely affects of AI on society. It's interesting stuff!
