💨 Abstract

The US Treasury has imposed sanctions on Iranian and Russian entities accused of using AI to spread false information and influence the 2024 US presidential election. The sanctions target a Russian military intelligence agency affiliate and an Iranian Revolutionary Guard subsidiary for their efforts to stoke socio-political tensions and influence the US electorate. The sanctions are unlikely to have significant economic impacts but signal further deterioration in the relationship between Russia and Iran.
