My first piece for @ConversationUS examines why facial recognition creates a permanent security risk and how biometric data changes the entire security model. Read it here: theconversation.com/facial-r… #Cybersecurity #Biometrics #Privacy @RITtigers @RITcomputing @riteslgci

Facial recognition data is a key to your identity – if stolen, you can’t just change the locks

You can change a stolen password or credit card, but you can’t reset your face when your biometric data is breached.

RIT asst prof and @riteslgci researcher @khudabukhsh tells @abcnews hateful content online is rising, because some large language models (LLMs) that operate AI chatbots are easily manipulated and the guardrails in place are largely insufficient abcnews.go.com/US/ai-chatbot…

AI chatbots are creating more hateful online content: Researchers

The lack of guardrails leaves AI chatbots open to manipulation and has resulted in them generating antisemitic and other hateful online content, researchers said.

Matthew Wright, @RITcomputing professor, said that the amount of AI deepfake voice scams are increasing because the technology is getting easier to use —@Mashable article mashable.com/article/deepfak…

Scammers are cloning voices and targeting everyone from grandmas to politicians

AI-created voices are eerily similar to the real thing — and they're effectively stealing money and identities.
