Lorsque vous receviez un appel téléphonique frauduleux par le passé, vous entendiez une voix robotique qui laissait deviner l'escroquerie et vous raccrochiez. En feriez-vous autant si la voix au bout du fil sonne comme une vraie voix humaine et ressemble à celle de quelqu'un que vous connaissez? Il s'agit d'un exemple d'arnaque par hypertrucage de la voix réalisée avec les technologies de l'IA [intelligence artificielle].
