This year will mark the third presidential election in a row in which voters have dealt with election misinformation. Many of us see it everywhere, whether in emails, on social media or in our mailboxes.
Now, with the explosion of artificial intelligence, misinformation is getting harder to detect. In January, voters complained about a robocall supposedly from President Joe Biden telling people to stay away from the primaries. The man who commissioned the job is now being sued. It's now considered the first use of AI-generated misinformation in a presidential race.
And as Nevada’s six electoral votes are key in what’s likely to be a close presidential election, the fear now is that voters in this state, especially those with language barriers, will be targeted more than in the past.
