Democrats in Washington, D.C. are forming a 'New Democrat Coalition' to focus on artificial intelligence (AI) and deep fakes, which they consider a national security issue. Deep fakes are AI-generated videos or pictures that use real people's faces and appear natural. There are concerns about the rise of deep fake videos featuring private citizens and their use in political messaging. A bill has been introduced that would require producers to disclose if AI was used in videos. A fake image produced using AI of an explosion at the Pentagon caused a dip in the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (NYSE:SPY) and the overall market.
