Minnesota's " Use of deep fake technology to influence an election" law is dealing with the influence of AI a federal lawsuit. In last filing, law is challenged by the attorneys say an affidavit to support it which contains AI generated text. In the "The Minnesota Reformer reports" director of Stanford Social Media Lab founding Mr. Jeff Hancock asked by Attorney General Keith Ellison to make the submission, but the content in the document contains the non-existent sources that seem to have been manipulated by ChatGPT or other LLM.AI could have created a proclamation against deepfakes.
Hancock found a published study in 2023 in the journal of information technology and politics which is titled by " The influence of Deepfake Videos on political attitudes and Behavior."
The twist happens when Reformer founds according to them there is no record of that study in the Journal of Information Technology & Politics and also not any other Publications. They also found after cited Handcock's declaration "Deepfakes and the illusion of Authenticity: Cognitive processes behind misinformation Acceptance," doesn't even exist either.
Also Hancock did not respond to The Verge's request for comment.
