I started getting text messages of a
00:00:03
video that was running on Instagram and
00:00:05
it was me saying each week get my three
00:00:09
best stock tips right now on the the
00:00:12
WhatsApp. I have a WhatsApp group. Fake
00:00:14
Scott. It looked pretty good on a phone
00:00:16
on a computer. You could tell it was AI,
00:00:18
but it looked pretty good. And people
00:00:20
were sending it to me saying, "Are you
00:00:21
aware of this? Should I do this?" So,
00:00:24
someone, a scammer, had figured out a
00:00:26
way to create an AI representation of me
00:00:27
trying to get people into spending money
00:00:29
to join a WhatsApp group where I would
00:00:31
make quote unquote stock picks. We
00:00:33
complained viciferously early and often
00:00:36
to Meta. You can still find it, Cara.
00:00:39
Yep. They don't care. It's like, oh,
00:00:41
people are clicking on it. Yeah. And
00:00:44
what I don't get is they could
00:00:45
absolutely use AI themselves to figure
00:00:48
out this and take down. Yeah.
00:00:50
They want more advertisers. Do you
00:00:51
remember when Amazon was doing books of
00:00:53
mine that weren't books of mine? It's
00:00:54
the same thing. But these companies
00:00:56
don't want to fix this stuff. Otherwise,
00:00:58
they would clean it up. They want more
00:01:00
advertisers. It's the
00:01:02
consistent record of this company to
00:01:04
screw consumers before taking the costs
00:01:07
that it would take to do this. Can you
00:01:09
imagine that many knocks before you get
00:01:11
thrown off? 32 automated strikes for
00:01:13
financial fraud before banning accounts.
00:01:16
Why isn't it two or five? or why don't
00:01:18
we investigate after 5 and then dump
00:01:21
after 10 or something. It's a company
00:01:23
that doesn't care about that.
