Google prioritizes user safety by releasing two cutting-edge AI-powered safety solutions for Android that combat harmful applications and frauds. These two features, Google Play Protect Real-Time Alerts and Scam Detection in Phone, use machine learning to evaluate activity in real-time and offer protection from unwanted applications and fraud. 

Enhanced Scam Detection with AI-Powered Call Monitoring

Available on Google Pixel 6 and later versions, the Scam Detection function is intended to detect and alert consumers to possible frauds while they are on the phone. Google’s AI analyzes speech patterns using on-device machine learning, in contrast to standard caller ID applications that depend on phone numbers. The AI notifies the user via auditory, tactile, and visual cues if it identifies a potentially fraudulent call, such as one in which the caller poses as a bank representative and requests money transfers. Notably, this function improves security while protecting user privacy by not storing or sending any chat data. Users of the Google Beta Program in the US will initially be allowed to utilize this feature, but only for calls made in English. 

Google Play Protect Live Alerts for App Security

The Live Threat Detection function of Google Play Protect provides real-time security against malicious applications by keeping an eye on installed apps’ behavior to identify any odd or dangerous activity. This program is especially watchful for applications that, as a usual way to avoid discovery, activate dangerous features after laying inactive. With live threat detection, users are notified right away if an app engages in questionable behavior, such trying to access personal information or interacting with other applications needlessly. debut, the feature will concentrate on detecting stalkerware and illegal data collecting, enabling users to react quickly to attacks.

Google’s dedication to developing a safe Android environment while utilizing AI is demonstrated by the new safety features. The next-generation proactive device security solutions, which are available in a limited number of countries and models, assist users protect themselves from fraud and unauthorized access.
