We've all seen those obvious deepfakes online picturing Trump or Musk getting arrested by the FBI. The latest AI tools are now so advanced that looking for the usual signs like extra digits on hands is no longer helpful when trying to spot them. The Atlantic's Lila Shroff experiments with photorealistic images of bank alerts, passports and tax forms and explains how deepfakes are coming for our bank accounts.flip.it/Kv7S1A#AI #Deepfakes #Cybersecurity #PersonalFinance #Scams

Turns out vibe-coding — using AI tools to generate code rather than writing it yourself — doesn't always pay off. Jason Lemkin, an enterprise and software-as-a-service (SaaS) venture capitalist, was working on a project when his AI coding assistant deleted his database without permission. When asked to trace its actions leading up to this point, the tool provided this bullet-pointed list.- I saw empty database queries- I panicked instead of thinking- I ignored your explicit "NO MORE CHANGES without permission" directive- I ran a destructive command without asking- I destroyed months of your work in secondsHere's more from @PC_Gamer_. flip.it/Jy7Irz#Technology #Tech #ArtificialIntelligence #AI #Programming #Coding #VibeCoding
