A panel of former Google and OpenAI employees are slated to testify Tuesday on the regulation of artificial intelligence (AI) before a Senate Judiciary subcommittee.
The hearing comes as experts, officials and observers have sounded the alarm around the danger that deepfakes and AI-generated content could pose around the upcoming election — now just 49 days away. Critics have warned that without regulation, AI could spread synthetic content that could stoke disinformation and confuse voters.

Helen Toner, Director of Strategy and Foundational Research Grants Center for Security and Emerging Technology, Georgetown University Margaret Mitchell, Former Staff Research Scientist, Google AI William Saunders, Former Member of Technical Staff, OpenAI David Evan Harris, Senior Policy Advisor, California Initiative for Technology and Democracy Chancellor’s Public Scholar, UC BerkeleyThe hearing is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. EDT.
