[FRIAM] From Merle--AI News

[Merle Lefkoff]

Here in the U.S., Jennifer DeStefano, an Arizona mother, testified at a
Senate hearing this week about her harrowing experience with a deepfake
scam that tricked her into thinking her daughter had been kidnapped.
DeStefano says the fake kidnappers demanded a $50,000 ransom before she got
in touch with her daughter, who was in fact safe and sound.

*Jennifer DeStefano*: “It was my daughter’s voice. It was her cries. It was
her sobs. It was the way she spoke. I will never be able to shake that
voice and the desperate cries for help out of my mind. It’s every parent’s
worst nightmare to hear your child pleading with fear and pain, knowing
that they’re being harmed and that you’re helpless. The longer this form of
terror remains unpunishable, the farther and more egregious it will become.
There is no limit to the depth of evil AI can enable.”


Is it already too late to design any kind of regulations?
