The problem with detection is that it only works after the fact. In many cases, the damage has already been done.
Today I read in a LinkedIn post the following story: “My "brother" called our mother saying he's been in a car crash and is being charged with criminal negligence and needs $8500 immediately. They spoke for a few minutes and my mother said his manurisms were spot on. She recalled my warning about scams like this happening, and asked him questions only my real brother would know. They immediately hung up. She then called my brother who has, of course, been at work all day.”
I have seen websites where all you need to do is select a voice or create a custom voice, type what you want the AI to say, and press dial.
Honestly, I see no real solution to this, other than that we have to become more vigilant ourselves. We, as people, need to become better AI detectors.

Yes. Vigilance and skills. I think real-time detection is the perfect complement to that approach.
