Swalwell for Congress Campaign with Wolfsbane.ai Against AI-Generated Cloning

Today, Congressman Eric Swalwell, CA-14, announced that he has partnered with Wolfsbane.ai to help prevent his 2024 election campaign content from being used to create AI clones and deepfakes. Wolfsbane.ai will use its patent-pending technology to encode Rep. Swalwell’s campaign videos and audio with a countermeasure that makes it difficult to create AI clones with that content.

Rep. Swalwell is the first political figure to use Wolfsbane.ai and take an active step to ensure that his campaign content is not used to create clones and fakes that can be used for misinformation.

“Ensuring the integrity of our democratic process is of paramount importance,” said Swalwell. “Embracing cutting-edge tools such as Wolfsbane.ai to prevent deepfakes is not just an option; it’s a necessity in safeguarding elections against fraud and misinformation.”

Rep. Swalwell is a ranking member of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Protection Congressional Subcommittee where he has stressed the dangers of AI-generated deepfakes in spreading election misinformation.

Rep. Swalwell is not merely talking about preventing deepfakes, he is taking active steps to ensure that his voice and likeness are protected using the latest technology advancements.

“AI is a potent technology,” said Swalwell. “If used irresponsibly, it can hijack the likeness and voice of public figures to undermine their credibility and spread disinformation. Wolfsbane.ai will mitigate the risks of this happening to me.”

The latest development happened two months after the Check Point Research team highlighted the dangers posed by the widespread availability of artificial intelligence-based technologies, particularly deepfake, in encouraging electoral fraud.

One of the advancements in the fight against AI deepfakes is Wolfsbane.ai. Wolfsbane.ai is a recently launched service offered by Play Cubed: A company founded by content protection pioneers Randy Saaf and Octavio Herrera as well as Fazri Zubair and Noah Edelman. Wolfsbane.ai allows customers to protect their content, voice, IP and identity from unauthorized AI cloning and deepfakes.

Before publishing any content, Wolfsbane.ai customers can use a simple interface to upload and quickly process it; once done that content is protected by the Wolfsbane countermeasure and the user can publish their content with peace of mind. Wolfsbane.ai’s patent-pending encoding technology offers a strong defense, designed to effectively combat a wide spectrum of AI cloning tools.

Wolfsbane.ai is being used by music artists, entertainment companies, content creators, and individuals but the company is very focused on working with campaigns as well as government officials. “We are proud to be working with Rep. Swalwell’s campaign,” said Play Cubed CEO Randy Saaf. “We think our technology can be an effective tool in the fight against AI fakes during this important election year.”
