Taiwan election disinformation rampant ahead of presidential polls
Description
January 12, 2024
From deepfakes to artificial intelligence, a flood of disinformation is hitting voters in Taiwan ahead of Saturday’s presidential election. Some researchers say Taiwan is more impacted by disinformation — from beyond its borders — than anywhere in the world, and it's overwhelmingly aimed at candidates opposed by China. Jeff Semple reports on how Taiwan is trying to crack down on a sophisticated campaign of misleading content.
