While Meta has found basic profile photos generated by artificial intelligence in influence operations since 2019, the report is the first to disclose the use of more sophisticated generative AI technologies since they emerged in late 2022. In a press call, Meta security executives said they did not think novel AI technologies had impeded their ability to disrupt influence networks, which are coordinated attempts to push messages.
In addition to the STOIC network, Meta shut down an Iran-based network focused on the Israel-Hamas conflict, although it did not identify any use of generative AI in that campaign.Meta and other tech giants have grappled with how to address potential misuse of new AI technologies, especially in elections.
