Phone scams are on the rise, and thanks to AI, they're more convincing than ever. That's why Google is stepping in and offering one last line of defense for Pixel users -- a feature that listens in, on your phone calls, and alerts you if a scam is going down.

Google is rolling out two new AI-powered security features to Pixel 6 or newer devices. One observes call patterns to notify users about potential scammers on the default Phone app, and the other scans apps for malware and notifies users about live threats via Google Play Protect.

Have you got a fraudster on the line? Pixel phones can now use AI to listen out for the tell-tale signs of a scam.
