Fair Fight Action is launching Peaches , an AI-powered chatbot that answers user-generated questions ranging from voter registration to voter challenges. The service is designed to combat election disinformation and misinformation in Georgia.
“Peaches, Fair Fight Action’s new AI chatbot and voting assistant, is here to help Georgians overcome these challenges by providing an accessible, nonpartisan, and trustworthy source of election information in multiple languages,” said Lauren Groh-Wargo, Fair Fight Action CEO. “With Peaches, we’re not just providing information, we’re innovating to continue our work of empowering voters to navigate new, complex barriers designed to suppress their voices.”
Peaches can answer questions such as polling locations and how to get registered to vote. It also references Peaches can answer questions in English, Korean, Spanish or Vietnamese. For example, a user can type a question such as, “When is early voting in Georgia”. Within seconds, Peaches will give the following answer:
Early voting in Georgia for the upcoming elections will begin on Tuesday, October 15, 2024. Here are some key points to keep in mind:
In-Person Voting: You can vote early in person at designated locations in your county.
Optional Sundays: There may also be optional Sundays for early voting on October 20 and October 27, 2024.
It’s important to check with your county elections office for specific early voting hours, as they can vary by location.
Peaches only Georgia Voter Information
The feature is only for Georgia residents.
Fair Fight also warns Georgia voters about registering to vote with websites unaffiliated with Georgia’s My Voter Page . Recently, Elon Musk’s super Political Action Committee (PAC), called the AmericaPAC, is under investigation. Allegedly, Musk’s Super Pac is collecting voters’ personal information with the intention of inviting them to register to vote. However, Musk’s Super PAC is promoting Donald Trump’s presidential campaign in battleground states.
Meanwhile, Fair Fight says their AI chatbot, Peaches, will dispel the rumors that are pushed by “election integrity” activists.
“After Georgians turned out in historic numbers to vote in 2020, we’re facing new barriers to voting from laws like SB 202 and SB 189, and rising levels of disinformation that pose an unprecedented threat to our democracy,” said Groh-Wargo.
