The European Commission on Thursday sent formal requests for information to TikTok, Facebook, X and other online platforms to examine how they are countering artificial intelligence risks such as deepfakes.

Brussels is worried in particular how fake images and audio might be used to influence elections, with EU-wide polling happening in three months’ time. The requests, made under the bloc’s Digital Services Act, were sent to TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, X, Google, YouTube, Snapchat and Bing, European Commission officials said.
