Deepfake fraud cases are surging, and Deloitte analysts project that generative AI-driven banking fraud alone could climb to roughly as much as $40 billion in the US alone by 2027. The problem is not just the volume. It's the architecture. These are no longer opportunistic scams—they are industrialized, AI-assisted operations, and the synthetic media tools that power them are becoming cheaper and more convincing by the month. A new report on deepfake financial fraud from Data & Society maps this threat. Justin Hendrix spoke to its authors, including: Alice Marwick , director of research at Data & Society, and Anya Schiffrin , co-director of the tech policy and innovation concentration at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-tech-policy-press-podcast-1378134/episodes/how-to-regulate-deepfake-financial-fraud/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-tech-policy-press-podcast-1378134/how-to-regulate-deepfake-financial-fraud.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
