Conversational AI is as effective as self-directed internet searches in increasing political knowledge, reducing misinformation beliefs, and promoting accuracy among users in the UK during the 2024 election period.

Methods: A national survey (N=2,499) measured conversational AI usage for political information-seeking, followed by a series of randomised controlled trials (N=2,858) comparing conversational AI to self-directed internet search in improving political knowledge.

Key Findings: Extent of conversational AI usage for political knowledge-seeking in the UK and its efficacy in enhancing political knowledge and reducing misinformation compared to traditional internet searches.
