Technology cuts both ways. While it has undoubtedly made our lives easier, it has also enabled new and insidious types of criminal activity – cyber crime. As Artificial Intelligence becomes more sophisticated, it is becoming more difficult to believe what you see or hear. First, there were fake ads using my photo. Now, criminals are faking voices to trick their victims.
In the first so-called ‘AI heist’, criminals used voice-imitating AI to mimic a CEO’s voice, to trick his MD into transferring several hundred thousand dollars of company funds to them.
Such AI programs can be easily trained to mimic voices and speech patterns from public sources like interviews and YouTube videos. Some programs are available for free, so anyone can download and use deepfake software to recreate anyone's voice.
We have to adapt quickly. Tech companies are developing ways to detect deepfake audio and video. Meanwhile, we should be discerning about what we come across online, whether or not it seems legitimate. Always be careful. If in doubt, check first before you proceed.
