Artificial intelligence is giving foreign influence operations new ways to create, target, and promote deceptive content. Jessica Brandt, a senior fellow for technology and national security at the Council on Foreign Relations and former director of the Foreign Malign Influence Center, discusses how AI can support content generation, translation, fake personas, artificial engagement, audience research, and forged documents. She describes a Russia-linked operation that used ChatGPT to build a think-tank-style website, falsely listed real experts as affiliates, and promoted content praising Russia and denigrating the West. Brandt argues that such tools can make influence operations cheaper and help establish infrastructure for ongoing efforts, while making it harder to distinguish authentic domestic voices from foreign influence. Hosts Jim Ludes and Mark Jacobson also discuss the Trump administration’s reorganization of the Pentagon office responsible for Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict as well as a report describing efforts by Russia and Iran to exploit and amplify recent French protests.
