Tomas Kapler wrote that the company Apate has built a fleet of approximately 350,000 AI agents who impersonate trusting individuals and communicate with scammers for as long as possible. According to him, they gather information such as bank account numbers, cryptocurrency wallet addresses, phone numbers, and details about fraudulent websites and scenarios used. The company passes this data on to banks, telecommunications operators, and other institutions. Kapler reported that Apate has recorded over 2.5 million conversations with scammers, which together took about 17 years, and obtained more than 250,000 intelligence data points. He mentioned examples such as the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, which, according to him, saw publicly reported fraud losses drop by 76% after implementing the system, and TPG Telecom, which redirected nearly 590,000 suspicious calls to Apate's agents. One other Australian bank, according to his post, broke up 22 fraudulent campaigns based on the information obtained. He added that the company secured $8.15 million in a seed round in August 2026, just shy of $10 million in total, and planned to expand into London and the United States. Kapler also wrote that Apate expected the proliferation of AI among scammers would lead them to spend more time communicating with its agents instead of potential victims. Finally, Kapler asked whether a similar system would work in Czech. He noted that Czech models may not be as advanced, but older individuals might not regard any mishearing or misunderstanding as a sign of artificial intelligence. He also mentioned that fraudulent AI farms from India, China, Russia, and Ukraine might not recognize such a deception. #AI #podvodníci #technologie (translated)

Martin Kuba stated that someone threatened journalist Karolína Brodníčková with death, and SPD MP Josef Nerušil reacted with the words "let her taste her own medicine." Kuba described the trivialization of threats against journalists for their work as unacceptable and wrote that, in his opinion, Nerušil has no place in the Chamber. He added that politicians can disagree with journalists and criticize their work, but they must not use that as an excuse to trivialize death threats. According to Kuba, the political scene should categorically reject such threats regardless of whether the journalist comes from a right-wing or left-wing media outlet. He also warned against a political climate that, in his view, increases aggression in society and adds fuel to the fire. #politika #novináři #bezpečnost (translated)
