Artificial intelligence is transforming fraud faster than most systems can adapt. “The Cost of Convenience Series: AI, Deepfakes, and Emerging Fraud Vectors” explores how modern AI technologies are reshaping the scale, speed, and sophistication of deception in digital environments.

In this webinar, Ashley Karr examines how deepfake audio and video, AI-generated impersonation, synthetic identities, automated messaging systems, and other emerging tools are being used to create highly convincing fraudulent interactions. While the technologies are new, the underlying mechanics of manipulation remain consistent—leveraging trust, urgency, and familiarity to bypass human judgment.

Participants will gain a grounded understanding of how AI amplifies fraud across both personal and organizational contexts, and what remains unchanged despite technological advancement. The session focuses on practical awareness and adaptation strategies, helping attendees operate safely in environments where verifying authenticity is increasingly complex.
