Google launches on-device AI scam detection to shield Indian users from digital fraud - The Times of India

▤ Summary

Google is launching new on-device scam detection features to help Indian users spot fraudulent phone calls in real time. The system uses Gemini Nano on Pixel phones and keeps call analysis on the device instead of storing call data. Google is also adding a screen-sharing warning for payment apps, a new phone number verification method, and broader access to SynthID watermarking. Alongside the product updates, the company is expanding safety education programs and funding cyber-defense work through Google.org.
