As Trinidad and To­ba­go pre­pares for its up­com­ing gen­er­al elec­tion, a lead­ing tech­nol­o­gy ex­pert is rais­ing red flags about the grow­ing role of ar­ti­fi­cial in­tel­li­gence in po­lit­i­cal cam­paign­ing.

Dig­i­tal an­thro­pol­o­gist Daren Dho­ray is warn­ing that the tech­nol­o­gy has the po­ten­tial to ma­nip­u­late pub­lic opin­ion and un­der­mine de­mo­c­ra­t­ic process­es.

Dho­ray fur­ther cau­tioned that AI-dri­ven tools, such as Chat­G­PT, could pose sig­nif­i­cant threats to elec­tion in­tegri­ty if left un­reg­u­lat­ed.
