How does AI relate to elections? How is AI reshaping democracy? Can AI be used against disinformation? Hosts Carl Schlyter and Joycelyn Longdon are joined by Dr. Rumman Chowdhury, a leader in ethical AI, to explore how technology is influencing elections and the future of democratic participation.

From polluted information ecosystems to the rise of AI-generated content, they examine the risks and opportunities AI brings to defending people’s rights, promoting civic participation, and challenging corruption and extremism.
