"The development of artificial intelligence technologies is expected to further increase the risks of disinformation and cyber fraud in the future," Karen Sutherland, Director of Dharana Digital (SFHEA) and an expert on artificial intelligence and social media, said during the panel session titled "A Secure Information Environment on Digital Platforms: Modern Challenges and Essential Solutions" held as part of the 4th Shusha Global Media Forum, APA's correspondent dispatched to Shusha reports.
According to her, it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between authentic content and content generated by artificial intelligence.
"Deepfake technologies are now being used to create fake audio recordings, imitate people's voices, and even make phone calls while impersonating them. AI agents can collect vast amounts of information about individuals and analyze their behavior. While these technologies make our work much easier, they can also be used for cyber fraud.
According to my research, in one such case, a local government agency fell victim to a fraud scheme worth approximately $2 million. The attack was so convincing that it was trusted. That is precisely why combating this problem is extremely difficult.
Australia is one of the first countries to have taken serious steps toward regulating social media. It is an extremely complex and challenging process," Karen Sutherland said.
