To ensure a transparent digital election campaign for the May 2025 elections, the Commission on Elections (Comelec) has sought the assistance of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) against deepfakes. The Comelec defines deepfakes as digitally manipulated images, videos, or audio files created using artificial intelligence (AI) to fabricate realistic representations of people, events, or statements and falsely make it appear that an action, statement, or event transpired even if it did not occur in reality.
