Risk Drivers

What is pushing the current reading.

The current landscape is characterized by a significant spread of misinformation related to political figures and events, such as false claims about Trump and shootings, which can influence public perception and incite unrest. Additionally, the use of AI technologies to generate deepfakes and fake news further exacerbates the situation, making it difficult for the public to discern truth from falsehood. This is compounded by health misinformation and scams targeting vulnerable populations, which can have direct harmful effects on public health and safety.
