Jason Koebler: Inside the Plan to Use AI to Purge Voter Rolls

"At a public meeting in Columbia County, #Georgia late last year, Dr. Rick Richards explained that he had run a piece of software he created called #EagleAI against Georgia’s voter registration records.

'When we reviewed the Secretary of State records, roughly 8 million registrations, we found 1.4 million typos,' Richards said. “There were 99,523 apostrophes where there shouldn’t be. There were periods in the initials […] There were 197,851 hashtags in the field for apartment number. Well, they won’t match.' Richards said he “offered to clean this up for the state for free, and they said no.'"

@Beachbum Indeed. Thankfully, the #Georgia #Democratic party is very well attuned to how the #election deniers and voter suppression crowd try to sneak in their..."ideas."

One of the drivers of this unpleasantness is #EagleAI, which is a literal voter suppression platform that the deniers use to file their bogus voter challenges. More on that later...

On a happier note, I was impressed and inspired by the number of Georgians who showed up in great numbers to speak truth to the powers that want to erode our right to vote. 💯 🇺🇸

#AItools are poised to strengthen #votersuppression efforts…groups of activists are now using #EagleAI, seemingly an #AIalgorithm-driven tool that purports to identify suspicious voter registrations by performing automated matches of voter data against public databases…EagleAI also fast-tracks the process of preparing voter challenge forms by allowing activists to do so with just a few clicks…

Caroline Haskins: A new tool targets voter fraud in #Georgia – but is it skirting the law? A tech company supported by Trump’s former lawyer is injecting chaos into the state’s vote-counting process

"A tech company supported by Donald #tRump’s former lawyer has been facilitating mass challenges to voter registrations in Georgia. State officials say its methods are inaccurate and likely skirt state law."
