New podcast investigates shocking AI scams

A new podcast has been launched, exploring how cutting-edge AI technology is being used to deceive and scam people across the globe.

Deep Fake is the latest offering from the team at Podshape.

One major story follows a finance worker in Hong Kong who unknowingly transferred over $40 million AUD to fraudsters, after being tricked by a deepfake video of his boss.

This scam reveals how AI is blurring the line between reality and deception, with even global companies falling victim.

Upcoming episodes of Deep Fake also ask: just how easy is it to create a deepfake? With expert insights from Dr. Adrian McCullagh, Ph.D., the show explores the legal ramifications and how AI might rewrite history.

The podcast also highlights the disturbing rise of deepfake pornography in Australia, with advocate Noelle Martin sharing her personal fight to change the laws around digital safety and protect victims.

Deep Fake is available on all major podcast platforms.
