The Department of Justice is withholding President Joe Biden's interview audio with Robert Hur due to fears that it will be altered by artificial intelligence.
CNN, the Heritage Foundation, and Judicial Watch, among others, have all been denied Freedom of Information Act requests for the audio and have subsequently filed suit against the Justice Department. In response, it issued a court filing Friday night to explain why it won’t release the audio from Hur’s interview with Biden.
Deepfake audio is achievable among public figures who already have catalogs of content featuring their voices. Additionally, deepfakes could include slowing down audio or removing words in order to distort the intended meaning of the speaker.
