> AI voice scams in US raise concern
美國人工智能語音詐騙令人擔憂

In recent years, robocalling frauds in the US have become increasingly widespread and disturbing. Now, with the development of generative artificial intelligence, fraudsters use artificial intelligence technology to imitate the voices of acquaintances to carry out real-time call fraud, which is tough to guard against, CNBC reported recently.
據美國消費者新聞與商業頻道CNBC近日報道，近年來，美國自動語音詐騙電話日益泛濫，令人不堪其擾。現在，隨著生成式人工智能的發展，詐騙者使用人工智能技術，模仿熟人的聲音來進行實時通話詐騙，讓人防不勝防。

According to the Global Call Threat Report for Q2 2023 released recently by Hiya, a telephone voice security company, Hiya found 6.5 billion spam calls (including fraud and nuisance calls) worldwide in the second quarter, which is equivalent to about 70 million spam calls per day.
據美國電話語音安全公司Hiya近日發布的“2023年第二季度全球電話威脅報告” ，Hiya于第二季度在全球監測到來65個億垃圾電話（包括欺詐和騷擾電話），這相當于每天檢測到約7000萬個垃圾電話。

In the US, 1 in 4 calls are reported as spam. At present, there is no data on how many spam calls are generated by AI, but because AI can mimic the voice of a real person and have real-time conversations, it is becoming increasingly hard to identify some scam calls.
在美國有四分之一的電話被報告未垃圾電話。目前，暫未有數據顯示有多少垃圾電話是由人工智能生成的，但由于人工智能可以模仿真人的聲音并進行實時對話,現在識別某些詐騙電話變得越來越難。

According to cybersecurity firm McAfee, 52 percent of Americans have shared their voice online, providing fodder for scammers to copy. In order to avoid being scammed, enterprises and individuals should strengthen anti-fraud education. For businesses, voice forgery should be included as part of employee cybersecurity training. As for individuals, be cautious about sharing personal voice messages online.
美國網絡安全公司邁克菲稱，52%的美國人在網上分享過他們的聲音，這為詐騙者提供了模仿的素材。為了避免被騙，企業和個人應加強詐騙教育。對于企業來說，應將音頻偽造納入員工網絡安全培訓的一部分，對于個人來說，在網上謹慎分享個人的語音信息。
