How is AI affecting personal online safety?
Scammers and hackers have been using falsified documents and images since the earliest days of the internet. Unfortunately, with the recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) technology, this has become easier than ever. Scammers can now create extremely convincing fake pictures, videos, or audio messages of anyone in seconds. All it takes is a single recording or photograph of their victim to steal their likeness.
Be vigilant! If you receive a call, text, or email from someone claiming to be a family member and asking for money or personal documents, take a moment to verify their identity -- ask them some questions only they would know the answer to, or see if they're available to meet in person. In this day and age, you can never be too careful.
