In a speech to the US Federal Reserve, Sam Altman, CEO of Openai, warned that artificial ielligence would create a “big fraud crisis”. He predicted that artificial ielligence would soon give anyone the power to fabricate the sound and image of others in a completely realistic way; A threat that, he says, could shake the foundations of financial security and social trust.
In a conversation with the Vice Preside of the Federal Reserve, Sam Altman expressed his deep concern about the future of security in the age of artificial ielligence. “Artificial ielligence has completely defeated most of the curre autheication methods, except for passwords,” he said.
He specifically poied to the vulnerability of banking systems: “What is frightened is that there are still financial institutions that accept an audio work as a degree in autheication for transferring huge sums.” Altman warned that the threat is rapidly advancing: “Currely only voice calls; “But soon the video or Facebook call will not be recognizable.”
Altman’s poison warning about artificial ielligence scam
These concerns are not just predictions. Evidence suggests that this crisis has already begun; Previously, there have been numerous reports of fraudsters who, by simulating voices, have asked their families ransom or deceived employees to transfer the company’s funds.
Last year, FBI warned of the increasing threat of cybercriminals who use artificial ielligence to carry out phishing attacks and sound and video simulation frauds. In a strange example, a person used artificial ielligence instead of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and coacted several senior officials.
The coroversial poi in this alert is the role of Openai itself. In this conversation, Altman tried to acquit his company from the crisis, claiming that “Openai does not work on ideity forging tools.” Critics, however, say the advanced model of OpenAI video production, Sora, has the poteial to be used precisely to make fake videos and dipfalls that Altman warns.
