The World Economic Forum warns that by 2027 disinformation—especially via synthetic media like deepfakes—could become the top global threat. Deepfake proliferation has already exploded (over 100 million videos and 5.4 billion YouTube views by 2020), and 2024 was dubbed “the year of deepfake.” Yet legal and regulatory frameworks haven’t kept pace, leaving critical loopholes for malicious actors to exploit. This project will map those gaps in AI governance—focusing on deepfake prevention and mitigation—to inform stronger policies that safeguard information integrity, democracy, and global security.
