How will AI affect the midterms? (with Larry Norden and Abdi Ahmed)
Thursday, 13 August, 2026
We’re back! After a summer hiatus, the podcast returns to discuss a major new study by the Brennan Center on how artificial intelligence can affect the upcoming election. A team of technology experts looked at how popular chatbots responded to prompts related to election conspiracy theories. We found good news and bad news. Chatbots often pushed back against false information, but they were also skilled at creating false images and disinformation. Listen as the lead authors discuss their findings, and read the report yourself here: https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/does-ai-fight-or-fuel-election-disinformation Recorded on August 11, 2026. The Brennan Center is a nonpartisan law and policy institute that works to repair, revitalize, and defend our systems of democracy and justice so that they work for all Americans. The Brennan Center cannot support or oppose any candidate for office.
