00:00 The Commission on Elections has released the calendar of activities for the 2025 midterm elections and 2025 Bangsamoro Parliament elections.
00:10 And in front of the rapid preparation of the poll body, there is a challenge that is being tackled now.
00:16 The use of AI in Pandaraya.
00:20 Luisa Erispe is in the center of the news.
00:26 Artificial intelligence is now being used to make deepfake videos online.
00:32 Like the famous Peking audio and video released by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to the West Philippine Sea.
00:40 The Commission on Elections plans to ban the use of AI in the upcoming campaign.
00:46 Comelec said that it could be considered a threat to the democracy and credibility of the country's election.
00:53 Many are confused, many are misrepresenting, many are not aware of what will happen if they use it.
01:01 This is a threat to our democracy and a threat to the truth that we should do when we are elected and when we have a campaign.
01:11 The Commission also said that it could be considered a fraud to the people if AI is used in the campaign.
01:18 There is no certainty if the candidates are promising the truth if it's only AI.
01:23 Comelec hopes that if AI is banned, social media websites will also start to be strict with the content that is being released on their platforms.
01:34 What's important is that there is a trigger.
01:36 What's important is that you will see a way for the Commission to stop and correct the mistakes that we see, even if they are new methods.
01:50 In order to strengthen the Comelec's plan to ban AI, the whole Commission is discussing this.
01:56 They will also discuss how to know if the video is a deepfake or not.
02:00 For now, they are advising the candidates to enter the traditional campaign using media like radio, TV and other.
02:10 Meanwhile, the Comelec issued a calendar of activities for the 2025 national and local elections.
02:17 The last day of registration is still September 30, but the Register Anywhere program will last until August 31, 2024.
02:26 The issuance of Certificate of Courtesy of the candidates will last from October 1 to 8.
02:32 The election period and gun ban will start on January 12, 2025 and will end on June 2025.
