According to Nathan Beauchamp, policy researcher at the RAND Corporation, China and the PLA are working on the ‘cognitive domain’ of warfare to create ‘a psychological or cognitive decision to surrender’ in its enemies. Nathan says these tactics include the use of technologically enhanced propaganda such as AI-generated deepfakes, “synthetic information”, “information cocoons” and “precision cognitive attacks” to polarize the American people. Such cognitive warfare has also been employed by the US government and military for at least a decade, in the form of ‘sock puppet’ accounts, that allow one US serviceman or woman to control up to 10 separate identities based all over the world.

Deepfakes and similar technologies are becoming so sophisticated so quickly that the nature of reality is being called into question like never before. From pornography to politics, to art, everyday people are playing with the fabric of human perception. From the US to Slovakia, where an election was put in jeopardy because of a fake audio recording, the deepfake threat is growing and has everyone from the US House Oversight Committee to the Council on Foreign Relations warning that the weaponization of such technology could have major election impacts, among other national security concerns. But it’s not just the fabricated images, videos, and recordings we have to contend with, and instead the categorizing of very real content as fake. Any gaffe by a politician can be labeled “fake” while fabricated content can be labeled “real”. If common people are toying with these things, what restricts corporations, governments, bad actors, etc., from using the same technology to completely change the public’s point of view on anything? The Deepfake threat is just that, creating more divisiveness, anger, confusion, etc., pushing people into smaller echo chambers, and forcing many into paranoia and insanity.
