    Partially right.

    The short version

    Tiffany Hsu predicted on June 25, 2023: “AI-generated misinformation will define the 2024 election cycle in a way that makes 2016 look quaint.” Verdict: Partially right. Hsu's pre-2024 warning. Deepfakes did appear (Biden robocall, fake Trump arrest images), but feared mass election-deciding wave didn't materialize — platform guardrails + media literacy held better than expected.
