This book explores national security uses for Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Western Democracies and its malicious use. This book also investigates the legal, political, ethical, moral, privacy and human rights implications of the national security uses of AI and the aforementioned democracies. It illustrates how artificial intelligence for national security purposes could threaten individuals most fundamental rights, and the use of AI in digital policing could undermine users human rights and privacy. In relation to its examination of the adversarial uses of AI, this book discusses how certain countries use AI to launch disinformation attacks by automating the creation of false or misleading information to subvert public discourse. With regards to the potential of AI for national security purposes, this book investigates how AI could be utilized in content moderation to counter violent extremism on social media platforms. It also discusses the current practices in using AI in managing Big Data Analytics demands.As a general-purpose, dual-use technology, AI can be deployed for both good and evil. The use of AI is increasingly becoming of paramount importance to the governments mission to keep their nations safe. However, the design, development and use of AI for national security poses a wide range of legal, ethical, moral and privacy challenges. This book analyses the implications of these challenges and offers solutions that can be mitigated or eradicated wherever possible.

Abstract

In a so-called post-truth era, research on the subject of the spread of mis- and disinformation is being widely explored across academic disciplines in order to further understand the phenomenon of how information is disseminated by not only humans but also the technology humans have created (Tandoc, Sociol Compass 13(9), 2019). As technology advances rapidly, it is more important than ever to reflect on the effects of the spread of both mis- and disinformation on individuals and wider society, as well as how the impacts can be mitigated to create a more secure online environment. This chapter aims to analyse the current literature surrounding the topic of artificial intelligence (AI) and the spread of mis- and disinformation, beginning with a look through the lens of the meaning of these terms, as well as the meaning of truth in a post-truth world. In particular, the use of software robots (bots) online is discussed to demonstrate the manipulation of information and common malicious intent beneath the surface of everyday technologies. Moreover, this chapter discusses why social media platforms are an ideal breeding ground for malicious technologies, the strategies employed by both human users and bots to further the spread of falsehoods within their own networks, and how human users further the reach of mis- and disinformation. It is hoped that the overview of both the threats caused by and the solutions achievable by AI technology and human users alike will further highlight the requirement for more progress in the area at a time when the spread of falsehoods online continues to be a source of deep concern for many. This chapter also calls into question the use of AI to combat issues arising from the use of advanced Machine Learning (ML) methods. Furthermore, this chapter offers a set of recommendations to help mitigate the risks, seeking to explore the role technology plays in a wider scenario in which ethical foundations of communities and democracies are increasingly being threatened.

Introduction

The way that people communicate with each other has changed (Bakardjieva, ). This study was carried out with the aim of highlighting literature integral to this subject. The study adds to the existing body of research offering further insight into not only the manner in which mis- and disinformation is spread but also the challenges this presents. The study also focuses on ways in which the risks associated with widespread access to falsehoods may be mitigated. It is perhaps vital that we consider the challenges that modern technology has brought into the equation, in particular AI.

The remainder of this chapter is structured as follows. In Sect. further considers both the micro and macro impacts the spread of misinformation has on individuals and society as a whole. This includes a discussion on whether it is possible for disinformation to sway public opinion on such a scale as to conflict with democratic systems. Finally, ways in which the impact of widespread disinformation may be mitigated are considered, such as the introduction of a mass-collaboration model, increased education and focus on media literacy for users, as well as increasing the burden of responsibility of social media companies to find and employ effective solutions. Finally, after discussing recommendations for how to mitigate the risks of spreading falsehoods online, the synthesis of literature explored is concluded by providing final thoughts and considerations for the future, particularly in terms of research which would be of further benefit to the academic community.

Misinformation Versus Disinformation
2.1 Information and the Meaning of Truth in a Post-Truth World

The conversation around information is one which has been ongoing for several decades. It is often argued that untrue information does not qualify as information (Floridi, ).
