Quote from the show:
"Understanding one's digital footprint and protecting personal information online is no longer optional—it's essential. The rise of deepfakes and sophisticated scam tactics means that we need to be more critical and skeptical of the information we encounter. Leveraging AI to detect psychological pressure and scam tactics in real time can help us stay one step ahead, but ultimately, it starts with heightened awareness and constant vigilance." - Yuri Dvoinos
