OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says, AI could trick banks and access your money: Here’s how

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman cautioned the financial sector about a looming “major fraud threat,” driven by AI systems capable of mimicking human voices to get around security measures and authorize fund transfers. Altman made these remarks during a Federal Reserve event held on Tuesday in Washington, D.C.

“A thing that terrifies me is apparently there are still some financial institutions that will accept the voiceprint as authentication,” Altman said. “That is a crazy thing to still be doing. AI has fully defeated that.”
