This manuscript fits within the Disinformation Countermeasures and Artificial Intelligence research topic by examining the rapidly evolving challenge of AI-driven disinformation and the effectiveness of current policy and regulatory responses. Our study focuses on the role of artificial intelligence in generating, amplifying, and countering disinformation, particularly in relation to deepfakes, AI-generated synthetic identities, and algorithm-driven misinformation campaigns. The paper provides a detailed assessment of AI's influence on digital disinformation, backed by recent data on how engagement-driven algorithms, bots, and synthetic content manipulate public opinion. It also evaluates the limitations of existing regulations (such as the EU AI Act and U.S. AI governance efforts) in addressing AI-generated misinformation and offers recommendations for improving oversight and mitigation strategies. By bridging insights from AI governance, disinformation studies, and policy analysis, this research contributes to the broader discussion on cognitive security and the need for adaptive regulatory approaches. It is particularly relevant to policymakers, researchers, and technology experts working to safeguard public discourse and democratic processes against AI-driven manipulation.
