ElevenLabs’ AI voice generation ‘very likely’ used in a Russian influence operation

SMRTR summary

Russian-linked influence campaigns are now using AI-generated voices to spread misinformation about Ukraine in Europe. A report by Recorded Future identified "Operation Undercut," which used ElevenLabs' voice generation technology to create fake news videos in multiple languages. The campaign aimed to undermine support for Ukraine by portraying its politicians as corrupt and questioning the effectiveness of military aid. While the overall impact was minimal, this marks a concerning development in the use of AI for state-sponsored disinformation efforts.
