To recap, WE'RE ALL DOOMED. The end.
when watching videos of AI being used for comedy of Biden, Trump and Obama playing DnD and Mario Party. but i knew this will be used for selfish and evil things rather for comedy
Just gets better everyday.
This old news in Asia/ Europe. … They can even create face time AI of you and trick you into scam … Why west always so behind… On news…
Soon, it'll be deep fakes of people committing murder when it's actually someone else.
Hang up and call them back ! Best advice
They will ban the internet and cell service if it gets out of hand
I keep getting calls from police and firefighter donation scams but this one is a higher threat. Glad they are taking reaction for United States because soon they will evolve. 🇺🇸
Targeted attack… how did they know he had a daughter and her voice was cloned…. ?
Lol good thing I don't use voice mail lol.
😮What a craziness ! So dangerous.
The threat isn't so much sentient machines but more how other humans can and will abuse it.
I feel like intelligent criminals could doctor a video of any one of us robbing a bank, calling in threats to schools or hospitals, etc. How can we prove people guilty if everything about them can be replicated? Better have an alibi always, forever, I guess.
Don't call me unless I gave you my number. 😂
Wow this has gone to far and I say the phone company’s should cover that and make us pay a fee
Glad I’m a loner.
Boebert: public urination 😂
I’ve been waiting for this
If its unknown number I don’t pick up
What program was being used?
All my kids text 🤣
Hahaha this is so easy to do.
