What happens when AI can copy your child’s face, voice, and personality—without them ever knowing?
In this episode, we dive into the release of Google Veo, a powerful new tool that makes it easier than ever to create deepfake videos that look frighteningly real. These aren’t just harmless digital illusions. They’re convincing enough to fool friends, families, and even major companies.
We’ll explore how tools like this could be used to impersonate kids, why a public social media presence puts teens at greater risk, and what families and educators can do to stay ahead of this fast-moving threat.
🎧 Tune in to understand how to protect your child in a world where even video evidence can be faked—and why critical thinking and open conversations at home are more important than ever.
