Podcast: 2024 is the first ‘AI Election.’ What does that mean?

In this episode of 538 politics podcast they talk to co-author of "Preparing for Generative AI in the 2024 Election: Recommendations and Best Practices Based on Academic Research."

OpenAI launched ChatGPT launched on Nov. 30, 2022. And quickly, the program changed the conversation around what is possible for artificial intelligence. In the past 12 months, we’ve seen campaign videos featuring AI-generated images, legislative proposals and a congressional hearing on AI regulation. By all accounts, the 2024 presidential election is going to be our first “AI election.” However, often the specifics around AI’s impact remain vague. How exactly could it impact our electoral politics?

In this episode of the 538 Politics podcast, Galen speaks with Ethan Bueno de Mesquita, the interim dean of the Harris School of Public Policy at the University of Chicago. Bueno de Mesquita’s research focuses on game theory, political conflict and electoral accountability, and he recently co-authored the white paper “Preparing for Generative AI in the 2024 Election: Recommendations and Best Practices Based on Academic Research.”
