About this report

A case-based threat report describing two account clusters disrupted for apparent covert influence activity involving ChatGPT. It examines narratives about AI data centers and technology policy, the types of generated content and the connections investigators observed to wider online operations. The report is useful for understanding documented abuse patterns and the evidence used to characterize them. Treat it as a provider’s account of specific investigated campaigns, with a clear distinction between generating persuasive content, distributing it and demonstrating that an operation changed public opinion.

The PDF is in English. This introduction and content guide are available in your selected language.
