A top intelligence official warns that the US elections are at risk from foreign actors and advancements in artificial intelligence. Steps have been taken to protect elections since the 2016 Russian interference, but Russia, China, and Iran are still attempting to influence American voters.

The speaker raises questions about who is responsible for debunking false information, suggesting that both federal agencies and state and local officials may play a role.
