Abstract

The convergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and social media has led to a new age of information warfare, marked by the rapid dissemination, manipulation, and strategic orchestration of information to impact public opinion on a global scale. This research delves into the complicated connection between these technologies and their profound implications for contemporary conflicts. AI serves as a robust instrument in the hands of information warriors. Its applications extend to the creation of hyper realistic deepfakes to manipulate public perception, the analysis of vast datasets to measure sentiment and target specific crowd, the automation of propaganda dissemination through bot networks, and the surveillance of online task to identify potential targets for influence operations. Social media platforms, characterized by immense user bases, real-time engagement, and viral potential, have surfaced as the primary battlegrounds for these information wars.
