A phone company developed an AI 'granny' to beat scammers at their own game

The article from KGOU discusses how a phone company in China, backed by the government, has developed an AI-powered virtual "granny" to combat phone scammers. This AI granny is designed to engage scammers in conversation, wasting their time and resources, thereby reducing the effectiveness of their scams. The initiative aims to protect vulnerable populations, particularly the elderly, who are often targeted by such fraudsters. The AI not only mimics the voice and conversational patterns of an elderly woman but also uses tactics to keep scammers on the line, like pretending to be confused or asking for repeated clarifications. This innovative approach has been part of a broader strategy to use technology to fight back against the rising tide of phone scams, with the AI granny proving to be a surprisingly effective deterrent.
