Recently someone I know got a call where they mimicked their child's voice using AI and asked them to send immediate money otherwise child will be in danger. This has got me into thinking - my parents would also do the same for me/ and everyone's would-- add deepfake into it -- how the fuck we are support to assume people won't give emotional response? forget about personal details, people who care about you can might directly do a transfer.

Mine wouldn't? That's an obvious phone scam, they would call me directly before wiring $500 to some unproven weirdo over the phone.

For the same reason you assume people won't immediately become greedy when a Nigerian Prince emails them about an excellent opportunity to earn a few million dollars. Common sense has to play a part or else you're going to be manipulated with or without AI.
