  • •Provides educators and researchers with concrete examples of AI misuse in the information ecosystem
  • •Covers synthetic media, deepfakes, AI-written propaganda, and automated amplification tactics
  • •Serves as an ongoing resource updated as new AI disinformation incidents emerge
  • •Contextualizes AI safety risks in terms of near-term societal harms rather than speculative future scenarios
