Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan are involved in the US election campaign. Together with other celebrities, they want to raise awareness about AI fakes.
How much will content generated by artificial intelligence influence the upcoming US election? In view of this question, Prince Harry (39) and Duchess Meghan (42) apparently do not want to remain politically inactive. According to a report from the news website Axios, the couple is currently in the process of launching a campaign against election misinformation with their foundation.
“A bipartisan coalition with the support of Hollywood celebrities and the Archewell Foundation” is working to “prepare US voters for a possible deepfake attack as the election year enters the hot phase.”
According to Axios, it would take more than five million dollars and prominent attention to prepare US voters for AI fraud. Also because many people already distrust mainstream sources of information. The three big players Google, Meta and OpenAI have already committed to thisto combat fraudulent AI content on the election.
In addition, Jesse Dylan (58), the son of Bob Dylan (82), has already produced two commercials with his production company Wondros to raise awareness of the issue. Harry and Meghan are working with their foundation to help develop new content to draw attention to the problem.
Does Meghan want to get into politics?
Harry and Meghan’s involvement in politics is nothing new since their resignation as senior royals in Great Britain and their subsequent move to the USA. In 2022, “Daily Mail” reported, among other things, that the couple had hired Miranda Barbot, the PR woman who supported Barack Obama (62) in his re-election. At that time there was already speculation that Meghan was planning to switch to politics.
During the 2020 election cycle, Harry and Meghan released a video urging voters to register to vote and reject misinformation. Meghan also made a surprise appearance at an online event organized by the “When We All Vote” organization founded by Michelle Obama (60).
