摘　　要：Artificial Intelligence-Generated Content(AIGC)is rapidly transforming the landscape of information dissemination while exacerbating the spread of fake news.This paper examines the mechanisms of AI-generated fake news,the development and societal impact of deepfake technology,and the role of AI in political manipulation and its threats to democratic institu-tions.The study highlights that AI-generated fake news spreads at an unprecedented speed and scale,exhibits high authenticity,and contributes to social trust crises,political polariza-tion,and economic and legal risks.Furthermore,the paper reviews current countermeasures against AI-generated misinformation,including deepfake detection technologies,automated fake news identification systems,and platform accountability.Based on existing legal and policy frameworks,this study explores how international collaboration among technology,policy,and society can effectively address AI-generated disinformation.Finally,future re-search directions are proposed,including the application of quantum computing and trusted computing in fake news governance,the ongoing arms race between AI forgery and counter-forgery technologies,and strategies to enhance public digital resilience.人工智能生成内容(AIGC)正在迅速改变信息传播格局,同时也加剧了假新闻的泛滥。本文探讨了AI生成假新闻的机制、深度伪造(Deepfake)技术的发展及其社会影响,尤其关注AI在政治操纵中的作用及其对民主制度的威胁。研究指出,AI生成的假新闻传播速度快、规模大、真实性高,极易引发社会信任危机、政治极化以及经济与法律风险。此外,本文回顾了当前应对AI生成假新闻的技术手段,包括深度伪造检测技术、自动化假新闻识别系统以及社交媒体平台的责任。基于现有法律与政策框架,本文进一步探讨了国际社会应如何协调科技、政策与社会合作,以有效治理AI生成的虚假信息问题。最后,研究提出未来研究方向,包括量子计算与可信计算在假新闻治理中的应用、AI造假与反造假技术的博弈,以及如何增强公众的数字韧性。
