by Law Events

anticipated to have an unprecedented influence on voters before, during, and after they cast
their ballots. While the risks of voter suppression, election manipulation, and misinformation
predate advanced technology, a new capacity for instant generation, automation, and deception

symposium will reveal the who, what, when, where, and why regarding advanced technology,

2024 election, what can we learn, who can be held responsible, and among other
takeaways, how can we prepare for its inevitable use in the future.
