Namfrel opposes ban on AI for elections

POLL watchdog group National Citizens' Movement for Free Elections (Namfrel) has opposed the Commission on Elections' proposed ban on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in elections.

In a position paper on Tuesday, Namfrel said that despite issues surrounding AI, particularly deepfakes in the recent elections in South Korea and Indonesia, the poll watchdog said AI is 'here to stay.'
