Date of Event
9-20-2024
Description
As the 2024 election comes into view, advanced technology is anticipated to have an unprecedented influence on voters before, during, and after they cast their ballots. While the risks of voter suppression, election manipulation, and misinformation predate advanced technology, a new capacity for instant generation, automation, and deception now gives a small number of bad actors the opportunity to undermine our democracy like never before. But as many states, federal agencies, and Congress begin to regulate, the First Amendment may stop lawmakers in their tracks. Given the nascent stage of these technologies, the boundaries of freedom of expression in this context remains relatively unexplored. This symposium will reveal the who, what, when, where, and why regarding advanced technology, election law, and the First Amendment. And as advanced technology continues to invade the 2024 election, what can we learn, who can be held responsible, and among other takeaways, how can we prepare for its inevitable use in the future.
