Imagine typing away on your laptop, logging into an account or two, while your phone silently sits beside you. Here's the scary part: it could be eavesdropping.
Hackers could use artificial intelligence tools to steal user passwords with near-perfect accuracy by “listening” to an unsuspecting person’s keystrokes, according to alarming results of a study published earlier this month.
It turns out that AI doesn't actually need to see your screen or monitor your keyboard inputs to know what you're typing. It can just listen to the sound.
Laptop users are at risk of having their sensitive information stolen by artificial intelligence (AI) that can identify keystrokes by sound with 95 per cent accuracy, according to a new study by researchers from British universities.
