Sweden is preparing defenses against electoral interference with artificial intelligence. The country is concerned about the possibility of foreign actors attempting to influence electoral processes in the country.
A survey published by the Swedish Psychological Defence Agency reveals that 64% of Swedish adults consider it very or quite likely that foreign actors will attempt to influence the country this year. The high percentage indicates significant public awareness about the risks of manipulation.
The Swedish Psychological Defence Agency is the body responsible for conducting research and monitoring threats of this nature in the Nordic country. The institution seeks to raise awareness among the population about the dangers of disinformation and external interference in democratic processes.
