Disinformation campaigns have been used throughout history to manipulate public opinion and shape the course of events.

To address this, policymakers must prioritize transparency, accountability, and the protection of democratic processes. This may involve the development of new regulatory frameworks, educational programs, and technologies to prevent the misuse of AI-driven disinformation campaigns.
