I think we're very close to Saturday from Clippy[0]. By this I don't mean an AI as in the story acting by itself with its own motivations, I'm only talking about the subversion of established verification & communication methods used by it by humans with malicious purposes. Essentially, if you do anything security related, we might only be O(months) away from you needing to stop using basically any electronic communication for your purposes. Companies can't have online meetings anymore in which decisions are made, everything will have to be more analog, more in-person. Look at the kind of access the Russian comedians Vovan & Lexus [1] have gotten. Without advanced AI, just a little social engineering, they got heads of state on the phone. Now combine this with the kind of text/audio/video synthesis we're not too far away from, and you have an absolute recipe for disaster ...
